Sheep Blanket Knitting Pattern: Aran Worsted Baby Blanket (Digital Download pdf)

Cosy Sheep Blanket & Throw Knitting Pattern

English-language intarsia knitting pattern in Aran/Worsted yarn, with two useful sizes.

Bring a little countryside charm to every cuddle! This wonderfully cosy blanket features a playful flock of sheep—including one cheeky black sheep—and makes a striking handmade accent for a sofa, child’s room or favourite reading corner.

Please note: This listing is for the knitting pattern only, not the finished blanket or throw.
