This Suffolk felted 4" sheep is made by a wrapping of wool over a wire frame. I also use touches needle felting for finishing. This sheep design is the original design of my Mother Evelyn Roberts who began making these little sheep going on 50 years now. She has passed on but my sister Madeline Jordan makes these for me now. This was the start of our business so we are very fond of them. Each one is strung for hanging as an ornament. Suffolk Felted Wool Sheep 4" Ornament
