The Wensleydale sheep takes its name from the same area in North Yorkshire, and first arrived in the UK in the early nineteenth century, and is now considered an endangered breed of sheep. Seth the Wensleydale has been one of the most popular sheep to crochet from TOFT’s collection since he was first created in 2013. This cute crochet animal project forms part of our Edward’s Menagerie collection and is a welcome member of the TOFT crochet sheep herd.

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.
