Lollipop lamb is a lovable little thing with her textured wool she is perfect for little ones to cuddle with.

Lollipop is 30cm-35cm tall depending on how you sew the limbs-standing or seated.

Gauge isn’t too important only thing that matters is that your stuffing does not show through.

This pattern is for intermediate level crocheters but confident beginners can also give it a shot. I’ve made my first video to help explain the curl stitch and how to sculpt the face. https://youtu.be/c6bmuobvoL8
