Taa-Dah or should that be Baa Baa

Drum roll please, sheep / lamb is finished, inevitably I called him Shaun.
I gave him back to my friend yesterday and she was delighted. She had been given the kit as a gift at Christmas, but felt that parts of the pattern were beyond her knitting capabilities. So I had volunteered to knit Shaun up for her, he is about 8 inches high sitting down / 15 inches tall and his real name is Ewan. I would say that this kit is suitable for a knitter who has made at least a garment or socks. The kit is available from Jacquay Yaxley Designs, Yorkshire.

He's lovely :) Don't you find that fluffy stuff a nightmare to knit with? I used it for a monkey and may have come close to swearing once or twice!

Hi Jane, Ewan is lovely. This is a shot in the dark.... My mum is JacquaY Yaxley who designed him. I'm trying to get all her pattern out as PDF's online. I have been through all her computers, all her files but can't find the pattern for Ewan. I've got loads of photos of him. I know this will be a good will thing but any chance you could copy the pattern and email it too me. He is my favourite! I can prove I am who I say I am.
Kindest wishes
