Hi! I'm Julio the Sheep. I was conceived on June 15th and officially born yesterday. You see, sheep like me have an interesting gestational cycle. First, an idea needs to be sparked in the person with the yarn and needles. Then that person knits frantically (because her other projects are stuck in the black hole of knitting with no progress). I am quick in terms of tangible results. Just 6 or so hours of knitting and then I'm ready for my bath. The bath is where I really take my shape. Fortunately since it is the warm season, I dry quickly and am ready to be filled. And then viola! I'm born.

If you'd like your own Julio the Sheep, just keep in mind that we like to steal hamburgers. They are especially tasty raw. Although the silly humans have protected them in this plastic bag. Without thumbs or teeth, I can't penetrate that barrier.

Just to give you an idea of how tall I am, check me out next to this tree! What? What do you mean that's not a tree? Oh fine, it is just some really tall cilantro.

I hope to have some buddies soon as it seems that Ms. Marigold continues to be mired in the black hole of knitting hell.
