This is Bearnardo the Bear!

As with all my patterns, I try to minimize sewing pieces together (because I hate doing that). The legs, body, and head are one piece, and the only sewing required is for the ears. The PDF is 6 pages, with written instruction and some diagrams for clarification.

Difficulty: Advanced Beginner to Intermediate (because of some non-standard joining techniques and color change)

Techniques: Basic crochet stitches, increases, decreases, and magic ring, but the construction and some joining techniques are a little more advanced, hence the Advanced Beginner to Intermediate difficulty level.

Materials:
Yarn: Worsted weight, about 80 yards
Hook: US E/4 (3.5 mm)
Tapestry needle for sewing in ends and stitching pieces together
2 beads or safety eyes (I used 4 mm beads)
Polyester fiberfill for stuffing

Size: Approximately 3.75” tall x 6” long using worsted weight yarn. If you choose to use other weights, the size will vary.
