Hank the Dorset Down Sheep is a best-selling member of Kerry Lord's menagerie and a popular choice for fans of TOFT as well as those who are new to crochet. Dorset Down Sheep are one of the oldest breeds of British sheep, first seen in the early 1800s with dark brown heads that give them a distinctive look. Perfect for any confident beginners who are looking to learn a few new crochet techniques, we challenge you to stop at just one sheep – it won't be long before there's a whole woolly herd!

This soft toy will look at home in the nursery, sitting on the shelf or lovingly gift-wrapped for the loved ones in your life. Once you've finished crocheting Hank the Dorset Down Sheep, you'll be ready to start the next animal in the collection with this addictive new hobby!
