Rosie and Clover are a snuggly cuddly pair of sheep, and would make lovely gifts or springtime decorations. They are knitted in polyester and acrylic yarns so that they are easy to keep clean with play, and use a fleecy boucle chunky yarn to make the textured look of the bodies.

Designed by Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz, both the sheep and decorative flowers are knitted and in stockinette stitch on single pointed needles (not in the round).
