This is my mum’s favourite bauble and she wants one in her Christmas stocking this year.
With this pattern you can make these Cute Teddy decorations in three different sizes
They are knitted around ball pool balls and ping pong balls.

Small – 12.5 mm (ping pong/table tennis ball)
Medium – 17 mm (small ball pool ball, mine were from pound shops in net bags of 15.
Large – 20 mm (regular size ball pool ball which I have found in supermarkets and charity shops.)
They are a great way to recycle plastic balls.

You will need: -

Size 3mm knitting needle (UK size 11) for small and medium teddy and 3.25 mm UK size 10 knitting needles (UK size 10) for large teddy
