Bearbushka

Pattern info page: https://www.sweetsofties.com/2024/11/bearbushka.html Bearbushka is a member of Sweet Softies’ Pearbody Doll Collection. This sweet Grandma teddy bear has a charming pear-shaped body figure. She comes with removable accessories for dress-up play: a cardigan jacket, bonnet hood, and layered dress. This versatile pattern is a fun canvas for using different yarn color combinations for the outfit and doll, and you can embroider flowers, leaves, or nature and floral motifs on the clothing. This bear “babushka” is a low-sew project that only requires sewing for the arms, ears, and muzzle. This play set makes a lovely birthday present or Christmas holiday gift for little girls and young children. It’s also a high-end toy for craft fairs & boutiques. The PDF pattern also includes progress photos as part of a detailed photo tutorial to help guide you through the crochet process. *Style/aesthetic: fairytale, woodland, cozy, whimsical, cottage, Waldorf, prairie revival* **SIZE** Height: 5.5 inches **MATERIALS** Medium weight 4 yarn in desired colors (I used Hobbii Twister Solid XL yarn) 2.75mm crochet hook 9mm plastic safety eyes (x2) Stuffing Yarn needle Scissors **LEVEL** ★★★☆☆ Intermediate.
