Welcome, dear friends! Today, I’m excited to share a unique amigurumi pattern featuring not one, but two adorable animals – a bunny and a sheep. These toys may look similar at first glance, but with just a few simple adjustments, you can create either a cute bunny or a fluffy sheep. The key differences between these two animals are their tails and horns, which make it easy to transform your creation into either one.
Bunny and Sheep Lou Amigurumi Pattern
This versatile bunny and sheep amigurumi pattern gives you the flexibility to make two different animals from the same design. Whether you choose to crochet the toy as a bunny or a sheep, it will make a delightful addition to your collection. Personally, I prefer to make them as distinct animals for clarity, especially if a child will be playing with them.
