Needle Felting
All my needle felted critters are made using fleece from British sheep. I source the fleece from farms in Bradford, Dorset and the Sussex Downs. I wash, dye and card it, then it is ready for use. The curls I use for my gnomes' beards come from either Teeswater, Icelandic
or gorgeous Masham sheep.
Most of my needle felted creations are completely safe, but a few have bead eyes and decorative items.
Shaggy Sheep
My new sheep is a ram named Shaggy, for obvious reasons! He has a wooden armature, covered with lots and lots of Masham curls. He is a very handsome ram. His horns are made from twisted string and his eyes are black glass. His fac and legs are covered in fleece.
Shaggy Sheep measures 18cm. from nose to rear end!
Shaggy Sheep is £35
