Franken-Bear Crochet Pattern Description

Meet Swampy Frankie – a science experiment that went horribly wrong. A lonely doctor was walking down a path through the swamps of Louisiana. He stumbled upon an abandoned teddy bear. Could this be the cure to his bouts of inevitable emptiness? The scientist decided to take the little fella home and attempt to bring him to life. The experiment worked… He’s alive! The only problem is he didn’t have an appetite for anything the bayou had to offer. He had an appetite for something else. He was hungry for BRAINS!!

This pattern is a fun, swamp-themed modification of the original Frankie the Zombie Franken Bear. Frankie in his entirety is included in this 18-page pdf with additional parts and notes to guide in the creation of Swampy Frankie.

This pattern is written using American terminology, most of which is worked in continuous rounds.
