I used a really simple technique that makes working with fur yarn super easy. The bear is constructed with regular yarn first, then the fur yarn is worked over the existing stitches, making it easy to see each stitch as you’re working into it. You get all the fluffiness with none of the headache!

Advanced Beginner Level, US terminology.

The finished bear measures 9” tall in the sitting position.

The pattern is 9 pages long and includes pictures.

Materials Required:
● Sport Weight (2) Yarn: 2.5 oz. of Body Color, the color is unimportant since the fur covers it completely, but it is best to match the color to the fur color somewhat in case any shows through at the arm and leg seams.

●Black Yarn - scrap amount for eyes. I used bulky weight but you can use smaller weight and double it

White Yarn. I used Knit Picks Brava Sport.
