Celebrate the fantastic tactile nature of wool by knitting a flock of Milly the Sheep! Customise each one with different colour scarves. Made in reverse stocking stitch and garter stitch he/she is lovely to stroke. Reverse stocking stitch is simply the back of stocking stitch. It is formed in the same way, one row of knit stitches followed by one row of purl stitches, although in this case the knit stitches end up being on the wrong side. To make the increases and decreases as neat as possible try purling into the back of the loop on the following row.
