Super snuggly polar bear crochet pattern via PDF download.

Made using James C Brett fluffy chunky yarn and any choice of DK yarn including colour to personalise your bear.

The finished bear will measure around 30cm when using a 2.5mm crochet hook. This hook is a lot smaller than suggested on the yarn, this is to try and prevent holes in the gaps between the stitching which occurs when using fluffy yarns.

Due to the potential for small holes and the absolute fluffiness of this yarn I would not recommend the finished product for under 3s.

simple crochet techniques used including, increasing, decreasing and starting with a magic ring.
