Embroidered Sheep Sweatshirt: Woolly Ewe and Lamb Resting on Green Grass

This embroidered sheep sweatshirt shows a ewe standing in profile with her head turned forward, and her lamb lying in the grass at her feet with its legs tucked under. The fleece is stitched in layered white and cream thread so it looks thick and soft, while the faces and legs are shaded in grey-brown. It is a ready-made design: choose the color and size, add a name or icon on the sleeve if you like, and we stitch it to order. Every stitch is 100% real embroidery, stitched into the fabric rather than printed.

What is on the embroidered sheep sweatshirt?

The embroidered sheep sweatshirt has 2 parts:

• The sheep: centered on the chest, a standing ewe and a resting lamb with white and cream fleece, grey-brown faces, ears and legs, dark outlines and a patch of bright green grass under them.
• The sleeve (optional): a name, initials or short word and an icon from the font and icon chart, in the font and thread color you choose, on the left or right sleeve.

Which color should you choose?

Pick a color in the options above and the photos switch to it, so you can see the design on that color before you order.

The white fleece stands out most on dark, deep and mid-tone colors. On light colors the fleece looks softer while the grey-brown faces and the green grass keep the design clear, and on colors close to the green grass, the grass blends a little into the fabric.

How do you order your sweatshirt?

To order your sweatshirt, follow 4 steps:

• Choose the sweatshirt color and size in the options above.
• Choose whether to add sleeve embroidery.
• If you add it, type the name or initials, then pick the icon, font, thread color and sleeve.
• Add it to your cart; we email a free design proof before we stitch.

How do you add a name or icon on the sleeve?

Sleeve embroidery is optional and goes on one sleeve. Type a short name or your initials, such as a farm name, and pick an icon, a font and a thread color from the charts in the photos, or leave the icon off. White thread is preselected because it reads best on the dark sweatshirts; pick Black or another dark thread for the light colors.

Is it a sheep and lamb sweatshirt for a mom?

Yes. A ewe watching over her lamb makes this sheep and lamb sweatshirt an easy pick for a sheep mom, whether she raises a small flock, shows lambs with her kids or simply loves farm animals. It suits Mother’s Day, a birthday or a new mom, and a child’s name or initials on the sleeve makes the meaning clear.

Is it an embroidered lamb sweatshirt for spring?

It is. The lamb and the fresh green grass give this embroidered lamb sweatshirt a spring and Easter feel, but there are no dates or holiday details on it, so it works just as well with jeans and boots from fall to spring.

Is it a good gift for a sheep lover?

Yes. It suits shepherds and farm families, knitters and spinners who love wool, anyone who keeps a few backyard sheep and anyone who stops the car to look at lambs in a field. It makes an easy birthday, Christmas or thank-you gift, and their name, initials or farm name on the sleeve makes it personal.

How is it different from the Psalm 23 sweatshirt?

This design shows one ewe and one lamb on grass, with no words. The Psalm 23 sweatshirt lines up five small sheep above “the Lord is my Shepherd” in script, for a faith-inspired gift. Choose this one for a quiet farm scene; choose the other for the verse.

Is there a hoodie or T-shirt version?

There is no hoodie, but there is a T-shirt: the same ewe and lamb scene comes on our embroidered sheep shirt, a short-sleeve T-shirt. The color and size options above are for the crewneck sweatshirt.

What happens after you order?

We email you a free digital design proof, and you can ask for unlimited edits. Once you approve it, we embroider your sweatshirt to order and ship it from the USA; the estimated delivery date is shown on this page. For a birthday or holiday, order at least two weeks ahead.

Which size should you choose?

Each piece is made to order, so it is not eligible for size exchanges. Open the size guide on this page and compare the measurements with a top you already own before you order; we suggest sizing up if you are between sizes.

How should you wash an embroidered sweatshirt?

To keep the embroidery bright and flat, follow 4 steps:

• Turn the sweatshirt inside out before washing.
• Wash it cold on a gentle cycle.
• Tumble dry low or hang it to dry.
• Iron on the reverse side, never directly on the embroidery.

Frequently asked questions

Are the sheep printed or embroidered?

They are embroidered. The fleece, the faces, the grass and the sleeve name are stitched in thread, so they have a raised texture you can feel and will not crack or peel like a print.

Is it a wool sweater?

No. The sheep are stitched on a cotton and polyester fleece sweatshirt, not a knit wool sweater, so it is soft, machine washable and easy to wear every day.

Are there other farm animal designs?

Yes. The embroidered chicken sweatshirt has four farm hens, the floral Highland cow sweatshirt has a cow filled with wildflowers, and more designs are in our animal lover gifts.
