There are two different variants of the head in the pattern:
First variant: is made with plush yarn (cream color - the sheep on the right in the photo)
Second variant: is made with pompom yarn (pink color - the sheep on the left)
All the other parts are made in the same way.
You can find links to video lessons showing some process of creating
amigurumi toys. I recommend watching them before you start work.

MATERIALS:
============
Yarn:
These are yarns
for the sheep in pink pajamas. If you want to make another sheep (the one wearing blue pajamas), just change the yarn color for the color you want.
Yarn: Red Heart
Super Saver (100% acrylic, 200 m/100 g)
or any other yarn
(200 m/100 g)
Colors:
Cream: To make
the muzzle, ears, feet, hands, the lower part of the legs - you will need approx. 120 g.
Bright pink (see
the yarn brand and the color in the photo below): To make the body, arms, the upper part of the legs - you will need approx. 100 g.
Yarn to make the
eyes:
It is better to
use thinner yarn. (160 m/50 g)
Color:
White. One item
for both eyes.
Light blue: to
make the iris.
Black: to make
the eye pupils
- you will need
approx. 10 g each color.
Yarn to make
polka dots, some parts of the shoes and flower:
Color:
light-pink
- you will need
approx. 40 g.
To make the head
with plush yarn (I use plush hairy yarn). - you will need approx. 50 g.
Super Soft
Natural Smooth Chunky Acrylic - 50 g
Or BERNAT
PIPSQUEAK YARN (100G/3.5 OZ), VANILLA
To make the head
with pompom yarn I use this yarn:
Bubbles Teddy’s
wool – you will need approx. 50 g.
I will use pink
color yarn.
This yarn is
amazing as it has small pompoms ever two centimeters. With a little bit of practice, you will have amazing results.
You can use
different yarn to make the head and hair of the sheep.
Do not be afraid
to experiment. It’s interesting!
More important is
to use rather thick yarn (about 50-100 m/50 g).

and other parts of the body: 3.5 mm crochet hook
