Materials

To make the coffee bear you will need:
– A Crochet hook, 2.5mm
– Brown and white DK yarn, plus a bit of black yarn for the nose and pink for the cheeks (you could use any colors you wanted to, though!)
– A tapestry needle and scissors
– Stuffing
– Safety eyes (I used 12mm)
– A stitch marker to help you keep track of the start of the round
Please note that you can make the coffee bear using any size crochet hook and yarn weight for a smaller or bigger result. I like using DK as it’s most commonly available. If you make amigurumi, it is usually recommended to go down a bit from the recommended hook size for the yarn to allow for a no-hole look (we don’t want to see the stuffing show through in between stitches)! Using DK yarn and a 2.5mm crochet hook, he should stand about 12cm tall.

The pattern is written using US crochet terms in continuous spirals. You will need to know the following kinds of stitches to make him:

Assembly
Sew on nose centered right below/between the eyes and stuff. Use some black yarn to embroider a nose (you could also use a safety nose for this), then use pink yarn to embroider on some cheeks/blush. Sew on the arms (the top point of the arms should be on the same round as the lowest part of the nose), then sew the ears onto the head. Neither the arms nor the ears are stuffed. Done!
