ust lazing away in the shade of a large tree, stuffed full of honey sandwiches & contemplating their afternoon. Bruin & Bo Best friend bears are just contemplating an afternoon snooze on their gingham picnic rug. And toasting each other with mead. Great for the Nursery. The bears can be
removed to play with if you like. If you go down to the woods today…
Apart from 100g of green dk for the wreath covering and the leaves, everything else is is in small amounts - 25g or less, so, a great stashbuster. I used aran for the tree, 4 ply for the bears & everything else is DK,
