Waldorf Lamb Pattern

07 11 2012 DIY

Oh I have knitted herds of these cute lambs!


Most of them hopefully found safe new homes because we tended to lose them on playgrounds, airports, taxis, supermarkets and friends houses.

I never minded.

Because they are so much fun to make and it is such a heartwarming feeling to bring them to life with your very own handworking hands.

Knit in garter stitch. Decide on an inside and an outside side and then keep counting only the obvious ribs on your outside side! The numbers on the pattern mean the numbers of RIBS. Don't count the rows - just simply count the ribs. As you sow the seams, you fill the little body with a bit of soft wool ( the lambs are not really intended to be able to stand up - they are for cuddling...), give a little kneading here and there then all of the sudden your very own adorable lamb will do it's first "mehhhhh" :-)

Please let me know if you have questions. You could leave a comment or send me an e-mail to lebenslustiger(at)gmail(dot)com
