Mount these leaping sheep over a crib or a child’s bed for sweet dreams! They are knit from a combination of a wool yarn and an alpaca boucle, felted in a washing machine (or dryer), then combed with a wire brush for maximum fuzziness. Each sheep is about 6” high and 10.5” wide. Quick, easy and fun!
