I designed this teddy bear pattern for a friend feeling a little nostalgic. Matching blue and yellow teddy bears was a memory he and his twin brother shared as children that and wanted to gift to his twin nephews. 12’’ tall standing, this teddy bear is the perfect size to hug, love, and bring with you everywhere you go.

Materials:
•Red Heart Soft Touch in any color you choose (140 g/290yds)
•Red Heart Soft Touch in contrasting color for embroidering the nose (36”)
•Hook size 3.75mm (US F5)
•Yarn Needle
•9mm or 12mm safety eyes (optional, you may embroider the eyes if you like)
•Fiberfill stuffing

Notes:
•It is best to crochet the body LAST as the arms and legs are crocheted into the construction of the body. I have created the bear this way to avoid sewing and the chances of knots coming loose.
•Work in continuous rounds, do not join or turn.
•Crochet through both front and back loops at all times.
