My daughter saw a lamb online that she really liked. It was out of stock and a little pricey, so she asked me if I could knit it for her. It took some figuring and ripping and doing over but I came up with a version. It doesn't have as much stomach as the real one, but Melanie likes it. That's what's important.
The bobbles for the head were the real challenge, but looking online, I found the ones I wanted to do and they did work rather well.
I used a sport weight yarn and size 2 needles, just like I do on most of my other knitted dolls. The yarn was from Hobby Lobby, a great place to go for these kind of projects.
Isn't she sweet laying next to her lamb?
It does keep her attention and make her laugh.
