Our Jacob Sheep kit is a fun, easy beginner project that makes one sheep entirely from Jacob Sheep Wool from Devon, UK. It is one of our first in British Sheep Collection supporting British Farmers and allows us to help smallholdings whilst we know exactly where the wool has come from (here: Cuckoo Farm in Devon)and how the sheep are kept. The wool is processed in a small Cornish wool mill and is turned into slivers (looks like a top and felts like a batt).
Suitable for beginners+ and children over 10 (or supervised crafty children 7+).
Skill level: Easy Beginner
Size: Approx. 12cm tall
Techniques used: Sculpting with wool, attaching shapes and features.
This small kit contains:
Full colour, step-by-step instructions
3 different types of wool
Felting needles (#36 coarse, #38 medium)
Eco Wool Felting Mat (made from recycled wool and 100% compostable)
You will also need: Clear-drying PVA Glue (optional), scissors
Do you need digital versions of instructions so you can increase text size or use a screen reader? No problem, please email us at info@themakerss.co.uk and a member of the team will send you the instructions digitally.
The package arrived in good condition and I cant wait to start making the Jacob Sheep. I am so pleased you have decided to create a flock of the different wool types and I am looking forward to building-up a collection.
