These sweet little sheep and lambs will certainly add a cute factor to your breakfast table!

The cosies are a quick knit. The detailed written pattern includes row by row instructions and helpful photographs.

I recommend using a wool or wool mix Aran weight yarn to keep your teapots, cups and eggs warm. The sheep cosies are worked mainly using stockinette stitch and garter stitch, they have embroidered eyes and nose, the ears are knit separately and sewn on upon completion. The cosies are knit flat on two needles and seamed where necessary.
