I’m pleased to announce the newest addition to our family. Meet Sunny. 
She’s the first little Sheep of our soon-to-be flock. A few more are due soon – this little one made her appearance last night. She is already anxious to start grazing the fields, as you can see above. She’s been staring longingly at that green goodness, so I finally decided to let her out to pasture this morning. 
The cool, crisp air took her breath away. There is still snow on the ground, and the grass is a bit too crispy and sharp for her yet. The wind kept gusting and mussing up her little “Foof” on top of her head – and she’s much to vain to stand for that for long. 
Birth stats:
Pattern: Little Lamb from IttyBittyToys by Susan B Anderson
Yarn: Bernat Soft Boucle in cream and BlueSkyAlpacas Dyed Cotton in Shell
Needles: US4 Brittney DPNS
Thoughts: I *love* this little pattern. It’s adorable – and ingenious! The legs are simply i-cord, but they are stuffed with a piece of drinking straw – so the toy can stand up! I’ve already started another, and plan quite a few more.
