Lola Lamb-Bert The Knitting Sheep is a sweet little lamb who loves to knit. Lola is a very versatile pattern as she can be made as a girl or a boy. She can be made for any age - from babies to adults (just substitute the safety eyes for embroidered eyes and remove the knitting for babies and small children.) Lola sits beautifully by herself, and needs no propping up. This is an easier knit for those with some knitting experience.

You can sell your completed item! Just credit me as the designer.

Size: Lola Lamb-Bert is 25cm or 10 inches when sitting
