The Care Bean patterns are cute and quick patterns for knitters of all levels. If you are a beginner, they are good patterns to practice knitting in the round and duplicate stitch. If you are an intermediate or advanced knitter, you’ll be able to make a cute bean from start to finish in just a few hours.

This pattern calls for sport weight yarn. I recommend Knit Picks Brava to get these nice, bright colours. You’ll need just 1/10th of a skein of main colour, about 1yd of white, and <1yd of each other contrasting colour.

Gauge is not important, just be sure that your knitting is snug so that the stuffing does not spill out.
