I know you love teddy bear amigurumi toys. Teddy bear amigurumi patterns are absolutely indispensable, especially for beginners. Today, I would like to share a very cute and detailed teddy bear pattern for beginners. Although the amigurumi teddy bear is simple, I think it looks very realistic and professional because it has a very nice face design. However, the bag of the amigurumi teddy bear is unfortunately not included in the pattern. You can get started right away by downloading the pdf pattern now.
Bear Henio Amigurumi Pattern
I wish the crocheted teddy bear’s bag was included in the pattern. In this way, I imagined a postman teddy bear. It doesn’t matter though. If you want, you can make a simple bag yourself.
Designer: piskorzanki
Materials
• yarn of choice for the body
• embroidery thread or scrap yarn for the face features (black and white)
• optional: safety eyes
• crochet hook in a right size for your yarn
• toy stuffing
• sewing pins, yarn needle, scissors, stitch marker
I used: Ricorumi DK in color 056 and hook 2,5 mm
Bobble Stitch
In this pattern you will make a bobble for a bear’s tail, it will be made with 3 triple crochet. To make this, make three tr in the same stitch, but do not finish first two (stop before the last yarn over). When finishing the last tr, pull the loop through all four loops that you will have on your hook.
Pattern notes
The whole thing is worked in continous rounds. If you will use the same yarn and hook as me, your toy will measure approx. 10 cm in height.
