A very cosy and unique blanket/throw featuring a flock of sheep including a black one. Perfect for snuggling up on the sofa with your little one. This would make a stunning feature in your home or knit it as a gift for someone special.
Easy to knit in stocking stitch and there are large coloured intarsia charts to follow for the sheep. A moss stitch border around the blanket is knitted as you go along and this avoids the edges curling.

I first started to design clothes for my children when they were younger and went on to sell garments through shops and craft fairs. I also taught the use of machine knitting and knitwear design. I later followed a career in IT, but I now have grandchildren and whilst hand knitting for them was inspired to start designing and creating knitting patterns again.
