Teddy Bear

Free Teddy Bear Knitting Pattern

Everyone needs a cuddle buddy, and what better companion than a delightful teddy bear? This easy-to-follow teddy bear knitting pattern guides you through the process of creating a cozy, hand-knit teddy bear that is perfect for gifts, decoration, or as a comforting friend for children. Knitted in the round from the top down, you’ll start at the neck and work your way down to create this adorable plush toy.

The unique design involves leaving the stitches for the arms on stitch holders, allowing you to complete them later for added convenience. Once the main body is complete, you’ll attach the head by picking up stitches around the neck, ensuring a secure and seamless connection. The legs are knitted separately and then sewn onto the body, providing a sturdy yet cute finish. Additionally, the ears are crafted separately and sewn onto the head, giving your teddy bear its signature look.

This finished toy will measure approximately 10.5 inches (27 cm), making it the perfect size for little hands to hug or display on a shelf. To complete this project, you will need approximately 120 to 130 yards (108 to 119 meters) of your favorite brown yarn, plus a small amount of black yarn (about 3 yards or 2.7 meters) for the eyes or nose. Whether you are an experienced knitter or a beginner looking for a fun and straightforward project, this teddy bear knitting pattern is sure to bring joy to everyone who makes it.
