Teddy Bear

Introducing our delightful classic vintage teddy bear knitting pattern, perfect for knitters of all skill levels. This charming teddy bear features all the classic attributes you'd expect from a timeless toy: a gentle hump at the back, an adorable muzzle, soft paw pads, a round, cuddly tummy, and a slight serious expression that adds character and charm.

Measuring 17 inches (43 cm) tall when finished, this vintage bear is designed to be knitted flat, which does involve some sewing up. However, this knitting method ensures that the finished product has beautifully pronounced curves in all the right places, making your teddy bear truly unique and huggable.

This pattern allows you to choose any double-knit wool of your preference, adding a personal touch to your bear. We recommend using 120g of the main shade for the body and 20g of a contrasting shade for the paw pads, allowing for creative color combinations that will make your bear stand out.

Your teddy bear will come together using toymakers joints, which we found to be the easiest to purchase online for a secure and flexible construction. This makes it perfect for both display and play as a treasured companion.

Whether you’re looking for a heartfelt gift or simply want to indulge in a relaxing knitting project, this classic vintage teddy bear is sure to delight. Download our pattern today and start creating your very own cuddly friend that can be cherished for years to come!
