My Little Bear

~~~~~~~ There are many teddy bears out there. As a designer, I wanted my own version. A bear that was knit in the round with minimal seaming, one that I could create little outfits for, and one that had a face to melt hearts. This is My Little Bear! =) •He is available on his own (this listing). Or, there are other ebooks & listings available that include clothing. ~~~~~~~ The pattern is recommended for intermediate level knitters who are comfortable working in the round. Most parts of the bear are knit in the round. The ears & tail are knit flat. The bear is constructed using Aran/medium weight yarn and US 5 (3.75mm) DPNs. It measures 9” tall standing and 6.5” sitting. The PDF is 9 pages long and includes photos to assist you.
