Wolle

Wolle is a sheep character from Sesamstrasse, the German co-production of Sesame Street.

Wolle is a witty sheep. He is Pferd's best friend, and together they form a comic duo on Sesamstrasse. Wolle considers himself smarter than Pferd, but a lot of the times he makes the same mistakes. Wolle can often be found playing "Super-Schaff" (Super Sheep) or "Detectif Wolle" (Detective Wolle).

Wolle is performed by Martin Paas. He and Carsten Haffke (Pferd's performer) are the writers of the Pferd & Wolle scenes.

Martin originally auditioned for the role of Pferd, who was designed to be a solo character. Martin and Carsten were the two finalists in the audition. When Martin picked up a random Muppet sheep to interact with Pferd, the producers were so impressed that they decided to hire both puppeteers and use the sheep as a character.

The German word "Wolle" means wool.
