You can use any other yarn. The size of the bear will depend on the thickness of the yarn used.

You will also need a small piece of yarn to embroider the bear’s nose.

MATERIALS:
• double-pointed needles 4 mm (US 6) - 5 needles;
I recommend using wooden knitting needles to prevent knitting from slipping when knitting small pieces.
• tapestry needle;
• crochet hook 2.5-3 mm (us C-2);
We use crochet hook to create a crocheted chain. Because we use the chain stitch method to pick up “live” stitches.
• sharp sewing needle (hand);
• 4 buttons (diameter 10-15 mm (0,4 – 0,6 in);
• thin sewing thread:
black - for sewing on eyes;
in the color of the buttons - for sewing on the paws.
• 2 black beads 3-4 mm (0,1-0,15 in) for the eye.
• filler - synthetic winterizer or holofiber.
