Merino sheep are said to have some of the finest fleeces in the whole world and therefore create the best quality yarns to knit and crochet with - one sheep can produce up to 100kg of fleece in their lifetime! Lou has been a favourite crochet project since she joined the herd in 2016 and is a welcome member of the Edward’s Menagerie collection.

TOFT’s Edward’s Menagerie collection is a series of crochet amigurumi toys designed by Kerry Lord. This crochet animal kit contains TOFT’s quality pure wool yarn and an easy-to-follow downloadable pattern. There are video links for all the crochet stitches and techniques used in the pattern to get you started and help you complete your toy.
