This sweet floral lamb amigurumi is designed as a soft garden-themed doll with a cream lamb body, rounded face, floppy ears, tiny brown horns and hooves, curly wool cap, green floral overalls, sandals, a decorated sun hat, and a small crossbody watering can. The finished toy has a gentle sitting pose, rosy cheeks, embroidered facial details, and tiny flower accents that match the cozy cottage garden style shown in the image.
Please note: I strive for accuracy in every pattern, but occasional errors can happen. Thank you for understanding and for enjoying my designs.
Pattern Overview
This pattern is written in US crochet terms and is worked mostly in continuous rounds. The lamb is built from separate amigurumi parts, then carefully sewn together to match the image: a large rounded head, compact body, slim arms, seated legs, wide floppy ears, small horns, brown hooves, textured wool curls, floral overalls, sandals, hat, and watering can bag.
The proportions are important for the look. The head is slightly larger than the body, the ears sit low and angle outward, the horns peek above the wool cap, and the overalls sit high under the chin. The accessories should look handmade and slightly rounded, not flat or stiff.
Finished Size
- Finished height: about 10.5 inches from top wool curls to sandal soles.
- Seated height: about 8.5 inches when legs hang forward.
- Head width: about 4.5 inches across the cheeks.
- Body width with overalls: about 3.75 inches.
- Hat width: about 4.75 inches across brim.
- Watering can: about 2.25 inches wide including spout and handle.

Gauge and Stitch Style
Use a tight amigurumi gauge so stuffing does not show through. With a 2.25 mm hook and DK cotton, 8 sc across should measure about 1 inch. If your stitches are loose, move down one hook size. If your fabric becomes stiff and hard to shape, move up one hook size.
Work most body pieces in continuous spiral rounds. Mark the first stitch of every round. Stuff gradually as you crochet, keeping the head firm, the body medium-firm, and the arms slightly softer. The finished lamb should be rounded and plush, not stiff or boxy.

Insert safety eyes between R18 and R19, about 11 stitches apart. The eyes should sit wide and low, giving the lamb a gentle baby face. Stuff the head firmly, shaping the cheeks with your fingers as you add filling.
FO with a long tail. Weave the tail through the front loops of the final 12 stitches and pull closed. Hide the yarn inside the head. The closed point will be covered by the neck connection, so keep it neat but not bulky.
Muzzle Shaping and Nose
The image shows a small pink heart-like nose centered low between the eyes, with a short black mouth line and two curved smile lines. This can be embroidered directly onto the head, but a tiny raised muzzle gives a more accurate finish.
Small Muzzle Patch
Use cream yarn and a 2.0 mm hook.
- R1: ch 5, sc in 2nd ch from hook, sc 2, 3 sc in last ch, work on other side of chain, sc 2, inc in last ch. (10)
- R2: inc, sc 2, inc 3 times, sc 2, inc 2 times. (16)
- R3: sc around. (16)
FO with a long tail. Lightly stuff the muzzle patch. Sew it centered between R19 and R23 of the head, with the top edge just below the eyes. Keep it very shallow so the face remains softly rounded.
Embroidered Nose and Mouth
- Use pink yarn to embroider a small oval heart nose over the top center of the muzzle.
- Make 4 horizontal satin stitches, each about 3 stitches wide.
- Add 1 tiny vertical stitch down from the nose using black embroidery thread.
- Add 2 curved smile stitches, one to the left and one to the right.
- Add two short black eyebrow stitches above the eyes if desired, matching the delicate expression in the image.
Cheeks
The lamb has soft pink blush on both cheeks. Use pink embroidery thread, blush powder, or very light yarn stitches. Keep the color subtle and round.
- Place the blush on R20-R23, beside the muzzle and below each eye.
- For yarn blush, make 4 short horizontal stitches on each cheek.
- Each cheek should be about 5 stitches wide and 3 rounds tall.
- Blend the stitches gently with your needle so they look soft, not striped.
Curly Wool Cap
The wool cap covers the top of the head with many small looped curls. Use ivory yarn. The curls should begin above the forehead and cover the crown, leaving the face visible. The effect should look like dense lamb fleece.
Base Cap
- R1: 6 sc in MR. (6)
- R2: inc in each st around. (12)
- R3: sc 1, inc, repeat around. (18)

- Move to the next space, sl st, ch 4, sl st into the same space.
- Repeat around the cap, alternating ch 4 and ch 5 curls.
- On the front hairline, make smaller curls: ch 3, sl st into same space.
- On the crown, make fuller curls: ch 6, sl st into same space every fourth curl.
Sew the cap onto the head. Place the front edge slightly above the eyes, leaving the face open. Tack the cap securely around the edge and add a few hidden stitches through the middle so it does not lift.
Horns
Make 2 small brown horns. They are short, rounded cones that peek out of the wool on the top sides of the head.

Body Assembly
Before sewing permanently, pin every part in place. The lamb should sit upright with the head centered, arms hanging down, legs forward, and accessories balanced. Adjust the pieces until the expression looks soft and symmetrical.
- Sew the head to the body using the long body tail. Match the front center of the head with the bib center.
- Go around the neck opening twice, adding extra stitches at the back for support.
- Sew the arms to the upper sides of the body, just under the head, with the brown hooves pointing downward.
- Sew the legs to the lower front of the body so they hang forward from under the shorts.
- Slide or sew the overalls in place, making sure the bib sits centered.
- Attach the straps and buttons after the head is secure.
- Add sandals to the feet and sew them down so they do not twist.
- Place the watering can strap diagonally across the body and secure with hidden stitches.
Facial Detailing
The face is the most important part of this lamb. Keep all embroidery small, neat, and gentle. The eyes should be glossy and round, the nose centered, and the smile delicate. Avoid heavy black lines, because the image has a soft handmade expression.
- Add a small catchlight stitch beside each eye using white thread if desired.
- Use black thread for the tiny mouth only, not thick yarn.
- Use pink thread or yarn for the cheeks and nose.
- Keep both cheeks level with each other.
- Check the face from the front before knotting the embroidery thread.
Optional Tiny Snail Accessory

Final Assembly and Facial Detailing
Check the lamb from the front, back, and both sides. The ears should droop evenly, the horns should peek out from the wool cap, and the flower should sit near one ear. The overalls should be centered and high on the body, with pockets visible near the lower front.
Secure all accessories with hidden stitches. The watering can should rest on the lamb’s hip, not hang too low. The crossbody strap should cross the bib diagonally. Add final tiny flowers only after all major pieces are attached.
- Trim loose yarn tails only after every seam is secure.
- Shape the cheeks by gently pressing the sides of the head.
- Adjust the sandals so both feet face forward.
- Brush the curly wool loops lightly with your fingers, not a comb.
Care Notes
Spot clean the lamb with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the toy, especially if you used safety eyes, wooden buttons, blush powder, or cardboard inside the sandal soles. Let the amigurumi air dry fully before storing.
- Do not machine wash if the toy includes buttons or glued details.
- Do not tumble dry.
- Keep away from pets that may chew small accessories.
- For young children, embroider the eyes and replace buttons with crocheted circles.
Quick Checklist Before You Finish
- Head is firmly stuffed and sewn straight to the body.
- Eyes are even and placed wide apart.

Detailed Cleaning and Preservation Guidelines
Store the lamb in a dry place away from direct sunlight. Strong sunlight may fade the soft green, pink, and yellow details. If the lamb is used mainly for display, place it on a clean shelf and dust it gently with a soft cloth.
For deeper cleaning, dampen a white cloth with cool water and gently blot the surface. Avoid rubbing the floral embroidery because small stitches can loosen. Press with a dry towel afterward and reshape the head, ears, and sandals while damp.
If the wool curls flatten over time, lift each loop gently with your fingers. Do not pull hard on the curls. They are surface stitches and should stay attached to the cap. If one loop loosens, secure it with a small stitch using matching ivory yarn.
Keep the watering can strap, buttons, flowers, and hat decorations checked regularly. Small accessories are sewn on separately, so they may need reinforcement after handling. A few hidden stitches are usually enough to restore the original shape.
Finishing Note
Your Sweet Floral Lamb Amigurumi is complete when the lamb has a soft rounded face, curly wool crown, floppy ears, green floral overalls, brown hooves, tiny sandals, and garden accessories arranged neatly around it. Take time with the embroidery and final placement, because these small details create the gentle cottage garden look of the finished piece.
