Lamb

A free crochet tutorial for Lamb by Irina Malashenkova @Toys_by_iris.
Using this pattern, you can crochet a small lamb-ball. Any plush or smooth yarn works well for this amigurumi project. The body is crocheted with plush yarn, while the muzzle, paws, and ears are made with smooth yarn, for example, cotton blend yarn. The head and body are crocheted as one piece, and everything else is sewn on. Do not stuff the ears.
You can combine any pastel shade combinations. The author suggests crocheting the lamb in beige and white.
