Need a Hug Bears

Pinkerton & Beau

Pinkerton & Beau

Make It

This project was made from an independent Craftsy designer's pattern:
Need a Hug Bear »

Instructions

Couldn't find eyelash yarn to make second bear, saw a brown scarf in $ store made from short eyelash yarn, unraveled it and made bear with it. Have enough yarn left to make another bear also.
The bears turned out different sizes because the pink yarn eyelashes were so much longer than the brown.

For: Children

Style: Cute


Materials

Eyelash yarn for Pinkerton (no name) Frogged yarn from scarf from $ store for Beau

What was your inspiration?

I saw pictures of the bears the knitters on knitting-paradise forum had made and fell in love with them and had to try it.

What are you most proud of?

The finished bear looks so professional, and I am definitely not the world's best seamstress when it comes to sewing up this sort of thing.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Just go for it - it's easy (and give the bear a nice fat tummy!) I used plastic doll joints to attach the limbs.
