A fun and very cute Scarf hat for ages 1 to 10 yrs, knitted in Jarol Raffles DK, and a crochet Valais Sheep toy to compliment will definitely brighten a child’s day!

The hat has been created with beginners/novices in mind knitted in an easy garter stitch pattern with shaping the the crown ears and face. You can easily make the hate without the pocket scarf if you wish.

The toy is simple single crochet (double crochet in UK terms) and requires a basic knowledge of increasing and decreasing in crochet.
