Fleeced Maurice, the Self-Shearing Sheep, is the only animal in Doublecross Woods that's actually doublecrossing himself. Permanently and unrelentingly unhappy with his own nature, Maurice is constantly trying to reinvent himself by knitting his own wool into more pleasing configurations: Superhero capes, business suits, uniforms, even religious vestments. But in the end, nothing ever comes out quite like he imagines it. He just winds up with another useless experiment that never really fit him to begin with. And freezing his butt off.
