Bobble Sheep Pillow In Partridge
MATERIALS
Our Bobble Sheep Pillow Bundle now comes in a Partridge version, which includes (NOTE: This bundle is no longer available, but you can still shop the skeins linked below!)…
- Main Yarn: 2 skeins of Purl Soho’s Partridge, 100% merino wool, in either Heirloom White or Wrought Iron. Each skein is 131 yards/ 100 grams; approximately 260 yards required.
- Contrast Yarn: 1 skein of Purl Soho’s Good Wool, 100% dyed Andean highland wool, in the color Coastline Gray. Each skein is 383 yards/ 100 grams; approximately 75 yards required.
You’ll also need…
- US 9 (5.5 mm), 16- or 24-inch circular needles
- A set of US 9 double pointed needles
- A set of US 4 (3.5 mm) double pointed needles
- Stitch markers, including one unique
- 1 bag of Fairfield’s Poly-fil Stuffing
- Scrap yarn in a worsted weight and a crochet hook to match (for provisional cast on)
NOTE: Our original Partridge yarn has been updated to Partridge Superwash. This new superwash version only has 109 yards per skein, so you will need 3 skeins of Partridge Superwash for the Contrast Color. The new yarn is also a touch thicker, so please do a gauge swatch to make sure you’re using needles that give you a nice fabric and expect slightly bigger finished dimensions.
