This listing is for a pattern to make Thelma Woolsworth the Crochet Sheep. This lovely lady is a soft sculpture art doll plush stuffed animal. She is crocheted with two kinds of yarn (bulky weight and worsted weight) and lovingly stuffed with poly fiber stuffing. She is approximately 12 inches tall and has posable arms and legs!

What an amazing Christmas or Birthday present this would be for that special person in your life! And sheep lovers and crochet artists cant resist this whimsical creature!!
