Fascinated by his big horn

There was a commotion at the far end of the garden in the early morning hours, about the time when the cows came home. Bernice and Evelyn the sheep gave a bleat as they were awoken from a warm wooly snooze when Bighorn Jacabob the cousin from the other side of the hill came tromping through the garden for a visit.

 

Like Jacabobs this Bighorn cousin enjoys dewy fresh mornings, a nice cup of tea accompanied by a wee smidgeon of jam on a muffin. Unlike Jacabobs, the Bighorn would like the muffin to be followed by a second course of alphalpha hay flakes and a salt lick.(it's an aquired taste he developed from hanging out with his deer friends)

 

Bighorn stands 3.5 inches tall including his horn. He has a cute little mini-button nose. A lovely sheep from the next farm over the hill donated the soft nut brown wool for his body and horn. His face is made of lovely creamy peach wool. Bighorn is formed by the needle felting method which means poking and poking a lump of wool with a very sharp barbed needle until his shape appears. This has made him strong and nearly fearless.

 

He hates kitties for obvious reasons but plays well with Jacabunnies, Feezles and Nurblettes :o)
