- Tapestry Needle (for sculpting and assembling)
- Safety Eyes (optional, for face detailing)

Curl Stitch Basics:
Start a Curl Stitch:
- Chain 7 (ch 7).
- Skip the first chain from your hook, then make 2 single crochet (sc) in each of the next 6 chains.
Form the Curl:
- As your curl forms, insert the hook in the back bump of the second single crochet stitch.
- Complete the single crochet stitch by pulling through both the loop on the hook and the back bump.
Repeat the Process for Additional Curls:
- Chain 7, skip the first chain, then 2 sc in each of the next 6 chains.
- Insert hook into the back bump and the stitch, finishing the single crochet.
Curl Increase:
Starting with a Magic Ring:
- Wrap yarn around your finger, cross over the bottom, and pull through to create a loop.
- Chain 7 (this is your first curl), then sc into the magic ring.
Completing the Increase:
- Make 6 sc in total within the magic ring, tighten the ring.
- Follow the pattern for curl stitches as previously described, working into the magic ring.
Curl Decrease:
Initiate a Decrease Row:
- Start with 3 sc.
- Create a curl stitch followed by 6 increases in the chains.
Executing the Decrease:
- After curling, insert hook in the second back bump of your curl and into the front loops of the next 2 stitches.
- Yarn over and pull through the first three loops on your hook, finishing with a sc to complete the decrease.
Face Sculpting and Assembly:
Sculpting the Face:
- If using safety eyes, insert before stuffing. For embroidered eyes, work them in after the face shape is formed.
- Utilize the tapestry needle to create indents and shapes in the face as desired, following the detailed instructions provided.
Assembling Your Lamb:
- After crocheting all parts (body, limbs, ears, etc.), proceed to assemble your lamb.
- Position limbs and features as per instructions, then securely sew together.
Additional Tips:
- For a fluffy appearance, lightly brush the finished crocheted pieces with a wire brush.
- Embroider details like the eyes and nose as described for a personalized touch.
