Next, make sure and attach your safety eyes or you can use buttons if kids won’t be playing with it. Now stuff your body and head well.
Connect the final round of the head to the last round of the body, using the long tail on the head. Make sure the bottom of the head lines up with the bottom of the body!
As you work your way around, when you’re about two-thirds of the way, add some extra stuffing to ensure the neck stays firm and doesn’t end up floppy.
Secure it tightly, and tuck the tail (along with any visible knot) neatly into the body. You now have a completed bobble sheep.
