Teddy and Car
This adorable little knitted bear, complete with overalls and a scarf, stands at 7 inches (18 cm) tall and is expertly crafted using DK yarn and 3.25 mm needles. This charming teddy bear is not just a delightful toy but also a perfect gift for children and adults alike who appreciate handcrafted items.
The stylish car, measuring 15 cm (6 inches) in length, is knitted using 4 mm needles with two strands of DK yarn held together. This technique gives the car a sturdy and durable shape, making it an ideal companion for our cuddly bear. Both the bear and the car are knitted flat on two needles and then sewn together, creating a seamless and professional finish.
While gauge is not crucial for this project, loose knitters may want to consider using a smaller needle size to achieve the desired fit. This will ensure that the bear and car maintain their shape and quality over time, perfect for both play and display.

- 70g DK yarn A for the car
