craftysals creative corner says
I decided I wanted to make a mobile for my baby girls room. I thought some sweet
little lambs would be nice and crochet was the way to go about making them.
Unfortunately these little lambs took a little longer to crochet and put together
than I thought they would. But if you are up for a project than this is the one for
you! Of course you could always just make the lambs and leave them as little
stuffed animals. They are about 5 inches long.

First lets start with the crochet pattern:

– Size H crochet hook.
– Tapestry needle
– Small safety eyes
– Stitch marker
– Poly-fil stuffing
Abbreviations:

Round 10: SC in each stitch around (16 SC)
Round 11: SC decrease until closed. Be sure to stuff and add safety eyes before
fully closing!!
Ears:

Round 5: SC decrease or stitch closed. Sew onto head where furry yarn meets
worsted yarn.
Body:
NOTE: Body is worked with furry yarn. It is pretty much impossible to keep track
of your stitches with this yarn. Do the best you can. If you are off by one or more
stitches, that is ok. You won’t be able to see the flaws!

– I used the inside of an 8″ wooden embroidery hoop and painted it white.
– Darice White Picket Fence (which I found at Jo-Ann Fabrics but if you google it
you can purchase it online from multiple places). I had to buy two since one is too
short to fit around the entire hoop.
– White worsted weight yarn to string everything together
– 3 white clouds which I cut out from felt (you will need to cut 6 clouds, lightly
stuffed with poly-fil and stitched around the edge with 2-ply yarn and a tapestry
needle). I used THIS as my template for the clouds.
– And my crochet lambs.
First thing you will want to do is cut a long piece of worsted weight yarn and
string it through the cloud and crochet lamb. Use a tapestry needle to send the
yarn up the middle of the cloud and then through the body of the lamb (near the
neck). Now loop your yarn back up the bottom of the lamb and make a knot. You
can weave it through again to make sure it is tightly secured to the crochet lamb.

Tie the yarn onto your painted embroidery hoop. Hopefully you still have a long
end left that will tie together with your other two strings and attach to a hook
from the ceiling. If your yarn isn’t long enough, just tie on a second string so that
you will be able to hang it. You will want to repeat this entire process with all
three of your lambs/clouds and place them evenly around your hoop.
Now hot glue your white picket fence over the outer edge of the embroidery hoop
and over the yarn that you have tied on.
Tie the strings together and hang from a cup hook in your ceiling.
Disclaimer: Please use extreme caution if placing this over a crib. Make sure all
your pieces are secure. In fact, I decided to place mine in the corner of the room
near the changing table. I don’t trust this craft to be a safe object to place over
the baby’s crib.
