With goofy ears, floppy arms, and a big squidgy belly, Pudding the Bear is sure to charm to socks off anyone he meets.

This is a straight-forward teddy bear pattern, worked completely in single crochet, almost entirely in the round. This means that he is pretty speedy to crochet, with minimal fussy seaming to slow you down.

Pudding measures 20cm/ 7.8” from head to toe, and uses less than 60g DK weight yarn, so he is a perfect weekend project, great for using up scrap yarn. I used two different colours, but he would look equally as cute in one or ten!
