Meet Sugarcane! Sugarcane is the sweetest sheep, but you can use this pattern to make a male sheep or baby sheep or whatever type of sheep you want. You can change the colors to any other sheep colors or make a crazy color.

Sugar is a big girl! She’s almost 30”!!

PLEASE READ

This pattern is for at least Intermediate to ADVANCED Amigurumi style crocheters. It is an abbreviated CHART pattern. I give you all the body parts in chart/number/round form so that your Sheep will end up about the same size with appx. the same dimensions as mine.

I have links to my youtube video tutorial on my blog with her pattern.

I do have lots of tips and tricks and show you where/what round I have everything placed.

If you have amigurumi knowledge and know how to work in the round - ex. 6,12,18,24 etc with increases and decreases you won’t have any trouble. This is probably not a beginner level pattern due to all the chain loops. Maybe start with one of my other patterns linked below to see how I write patterns - I recommend Dixie the Duckling - she is the smallest.

update: after a few requests I have included a “cheat sheet” to give detailed instructions on each increasing and decreasing round. Use the cheat sheet if you need to let you know the exact numbers/details on increasing/decreasing.

Materials:
-Yarn: Caron One Pound in White for body with Big Twist Rainbow Classic in White for the chain loops to make up the “hair” and also for the back of head – please note that although Big Twist Rainbow Classic is listed as a #5 Bulky yarn it does not work up like a bulky yarn. As a matter of fact, after using it for the back of the head, I realized that it actually worked up too small for my liking, so, for the body I switched to my Caron White for the inner body part. I did like it for the chain loop “hair” as it has a nice softness and sheen to it. I do not recommend it for the basic body though if you want a nice size animal like mine. It is thinner and does work up smaller. My sheep measures almost 30” with the materials that I have used.
Caron One Pound in Soft Grey Mix for legs/arms

Some scraps of pink (inner ear color and “heart” nostrils and mouth) and a scrap of black to divide the feet.

I have also used a scrap of white fun fur to make some hair on top of her eyes after she was finished.

-Hook: I used a G and I hook for this pattern. I used my G hook on everything except the ears and on those I have used my I hook.

-Safety Eyes or buttons (or yarn to embroider if you choose) and needle to embroider face.
