Teddy bear amigurumi toys are perhaps the most popular among the crochet toys that helped the emergence of the art of amigurumi. Today, I want to share a very easy bear amigurumi pattern. The name of the bear amigurumi toy is Simon. When you take a detailed look at the pattern, you will see a teddy bear wearing a sweater in several pictures. Unfortunately, there is no information on how the sweater was made. If you wish, you can ask the designer for the free pattern of the sweater of the amigurumi toy or you can buy it.
Bear Simon for Beginners Amigurumi Pattern
I think the simple design of the toy will be a better choice for both your child and you because if you are interested in this crochet teddy bear, you are probably at the beginner level. The only thing you need to pay attention to when making the teddy bear is the muzzle.
