This cute little bear (or bunny!) is knitted in 5 pieces, including the ears and tail. He can be easily knitted in the round to minimize sewing even further.

Gauge is not important for this project. Just be sure to select yarn that is heavier than recommended for the set of needles you’ll be using so the fabric is tight and the stuffing doesn’t show.

If using the specified US7 size needles, the bear will measure about 9” tall.

The 8-page pattern comes with numerous detail photos and clear instructions and tips for making up and finishing. There are also extra tips for knitting these critters in the round.
