"Baa Baa, Black Sheep, Have You any Wool?"
"--Yes, Sir! Yes, Sir! Three Bags Full:
One for me Master, and One for me Dame,
And One for the Little Bairn wot Lives down the Lane!"

I can't remember NOT knowing this nursery rhyme... and from the first moment i ever laid eyes on a 'Jacob's Cross' Sheep (who generally sport two or three colors of wool EACH on their individual bodies: a warm brownish black, a tawny golden brown, and a creamy white, in resplendent overachiever fashion) i have imagined just such a sheep regaling this rhyme. The hands are long-fingered and expressive, as the sheep counts off the bags of wool for his/her answer, and the bust has an open mouth, with visible teeth and tongue, and cloven-toed boots complete the kit, with tiny waxed hemp shoelaces (see 4th image).

This listing is for the complete set as shown above: bust with jointed ears, OOAK hands and feet (featuring cloven-toed lace-up boots constructed of stained, waxed Cassius Basaltic stoneware. The left ear is marked with my initials and the year, the right ear numbered and the back of the bustplate with "BaaBaa #3." All about work as a form of prayer, this character is the spiritual progeny of my Etsy avatar, "Virginia Wool," and a more advanced sculpt than her, as well: note the hand-sculpted curls on her head and cheeks, and her teeth (see image #3), sculpted of arctic white stoneware and set into the basaltic clay. (S)he also sports a jute/hemp collar with a tiny brass bell and buckle on it, and a few extra jointed curls beneath it.

The bust and limbs are fitted with the necessary holes for attaching to jointed cloth arms and legs, (with the feet having the added benefit of holes bored thru the heels to accommodate small rods for securely mounting onto a sculpture base) and are designed to be completed with a body pattern similar to the one available in my step-by-step, full-color 25-page illustrated PDF tutorial, available separately here:

If completed according to my pattern & instructions, the doll will stand approximately 11"-12" tall, requiring a slightly modified body pattern from the one included in the above PDF, available shortly, so check back soon for that, as well as sketches of how the completed doll might look.

Thanks for doting!!
