- Insert TP roll into the crocheted body. The hole at the top should be snug but large enough to slide the roll in and out.
- Sew the head onto the upper front edge of the body, just above the hole. Use strong stitches around the entire head base for a secure hold.
- Stitch the legs underneath the body, aligned so the sheep appears to be sitting.
- Attach the ears and flower crown to the head.
💡 Optional Enhancements
- Add a small Velcro closure or button underneath to keep the roll secured.
- Make multiple interchangeable heads (e.g., a bunny, bear, or cow) for seasonal swaps.
- Use velvet or chenille yarn for a fuzzy, plush sheep effect.
