Meet Yukon! He's a golden-faced ram with a soft spot for water colors. An avid con-goer, Yukon has an impressive collection of passes that he's acquired over the years. He typically hangs out by the artists' booths, but he's never quite managed to set one up himself. When he's not planning for or attending a convention, he works full time at a craft store. Ironically enough, while he can point you to every kind of paint on the market, he's not very knowledgeable when it comes to the fiber crafts. He can tell you where to find the yarn section and...that's about it.
Yukon is a test run of that sheep pattern I found yesterday-with a few adjustments. I left off a couple of increase rounds in the body, added a couple of increase rounds to the face, and added another round of single crochet to the feet. I also crocheted six stitches into the ears, instead of four. His legs ended up being placed in a really wonky position, but it doesn't detract from the cute! His eyes also turned out much better than I thought they would. :)
Yukon's body is made from Loops and Threads Country Loom in "Warm Cream", and his face, feet and ears are made from Lion Brand Vanna's Choice in "Honey".
