Little Lamb (Free Pattern)

Someone on Ravelry asked for a pattern of this Little Lamb that I made couple years ago!  Yes, it's really a cute little lamb!  This is one of my daughter's favorite amigurumis! 

I used the Bernat Worsted yarns which are very soft.  It's a good yarn to make ami!  I bought the safety eyes at 6060 which has many sizes of safety eyes and they also hand-paint safety eyes for customers.  You can also download a PDF file on Ravelry! Enjoy!
