Personalised Sheep Breed Tote – Hand-Painted Rare Breeds

Carry a little of the countryside with you wherever you wander. This sturdy tote bag is printed with one of Kate’s cheerful rare-breed sheep illustrations — each one painted with affection for the old, enduring breeds that have shaped our fields for generations.

From the bold Badger Face Texel to the soft-fleeced Wensleydale, the spirited Zwartbles to the gentle Border Leicester, a whole flock of characters is ready to choose from. Current breeds include, though are by no means limited to: Badger Face Texel, Balwen, Beltex, Blue Texel, Border Leicester, Boreray, Cheviot, Clun Forest, Devon & Cornwall Longwool, Dorset Horn, Jacob, Kerry, Manx, Merino, Norfolk Horn, Ryeland, Shetland, Soay, Suffolk, Swaledale, Teeswater, Wensleydale, Zwartbles… with more joining the flock all the time.

The bag is made from a strong 290 gsm recycled fabric — a weighty, eco-friendly material with the honest feel of something made to last. Measuring approximately 38 × 37 cm, with comfortable 21 cm handles, it is perfect for market days, wool shows, farm visits, or simply carrying your everyday essentials.

You may choose a single beloved breed for the front of your bag, or gather nine different sheep together in a joyful patchwork flock. And if the breed you’re looking for isn’t yet in the gallery, simply ask — Kate may be able to paint one especially for you.
