This woolly knitting companion is here to add a spark of encouragement to all your knitting adventures! Knit a Sheep in the Stash to watch over your yarn stash or sit happily beside you as you work. You can dress up your Sheep with one of our Ewe-couragement Pins, which offer gentle nudges like “buy more yarn” or playful reminders to knit “one more row.” For those moments with friends when you need a bit of quiet, simply pin a “shhh, I’m counting” button to your Sheep. Let Sheep in the Stash be your charming guide, keeping you motivated and inspired with every stitch!

Sheep in the Stash is worked in several pieces and seemed together. First knit the body in-the-round from the bottom up holding strands of worsted weight and a boucle (or other light weight textured yarn) together. Then add arms, ears, and a face!

The pattern features written instructions to knit the sheep and a picture tutorial to complete the assembly.
