Wolle

Wolle is a witty sheep character from Sesamstrasse, the German co-production of Sesame Street. He is Pferd's best friend, and together they form a comic duo. Wolle considers himself smarter than Pferd, but a lot of the times he makes the same mistakes. Wolle can often be found playing "Super-Schaf" (Super Sheep) or "Detektiv Wolle" (Detective Wolle).

Martin Paas, who performs Wolle, and Carsten Haffke (Pferd's performer) also script the Pferd & Wolle scenes.

Martin Paas originally auditioned for the role of Pferd, who was designed to be a solo character. He and Haffke were the two finalists in the audition. When Paas 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, and is also a nickname for Wolfgang.
