The Great Sheep Name-Off

Help Us Name the Face of The Little Knitting Company

Since 2008, The Little Knitting Company has been all about creativity and a love of making. From our first kits to our newest collections, every stitch tells a story and now it’s time to start a brand-new chapter.

This autumn, we’re thrilled to reveal our fresh new look; a brand-new website and a beautifully refreshed logo that reflects everything we stand for.

But there’s one finishing touch still missing… our lovely sheep doesn’t have a name yet!

And that’s where you come in.
