Noelsy

**Note to Customers: Please be aware that all of my patterns use the KLL (knit left loop) or KRL (knit right loop) increase methods. These are nearly invisible increases that help maintain a super clean look of the fabric.** Noelsy is a sweet and festive knitted teddy bear ready to bring warmth and holiday magic to your handmade collection. This knitting pattern is worked flat on 2 needles and then sewn together, making it a relaxing and enjoyable project for knitters who love creating charming toys with lots of personality.
