The legend behind the song: Floating fluffy white clouds were snagged by trees and fell to the ground. The fluffy white clouds changed into a flock of beautiful white sheep. But as they jumped, hopped, and leaped, their colors changed. Sheep that rolled around in the dirt became brown. Sheep that swan in a cold creek became blue. Sheep that played in the grass became green. And sheep that played in the hot sun became red. Nails snagged the colored wool as sheep ran past a barn. As the sheep ran and turned, their fleece was spun into strands of colored yarn. As the sheep ran and weaved between each other, they weaved the yarn into cloth with colored patterns such as argyle and plaid. The sheep’s wool eventually became cozy sweaters that we wear.
