Crochet Bear Assembly
- Align the head with the body. Using the long tail from the head, sew it to the body by matching stitch for stitch. Secure with a knot and weave in the end.
- Position the snout between rounds 14-21 of the head. Thread your needle and sew it to the head, adding a small amount of fiberfill before closing completely. Place safety eyes between rounds 14-15, with 7 stitches between them.
- Attach the ears at rounds 4-11 on both sides of the head. Sew them securely by matching stitches, then fasten off and weave in ends.
- Pin the arms to the body sides, aligned with the ears. Use your needle to sew them to round 2 of the body, secure with a knot, and weave in ends.
- Attach the legs between rounds 11-12 of the body, keeping them aligned with the arms and ears. Sew securely in place.
- Sew the tail to the back of the body between rounds 12-13, centering it with a pin before securing.
- Split black yarn into 2 strands. Starting from the chin, bring needle out at round 3 of the snout (right side), take 3 stitches on the left, exit in the middle, and finish underneath the snout.
- Using body-colored yarn, create eye sockets by pulling the stitches slightly inward.
- With single-strand white yarn, create eye highlights by stitching a small semi-circle on each eye.
- Using 2 strands of black yarn, create eyebrows 3 rows above eyes, working diagonally across 2 stitches. Repeat for both sides.
- Attach the hat to the top of the head by sewing it securely in place.
- Put the pants on the body, sew two buttons to the front. Finally, attach the straps to the back of the pants and secure firmly.
Crochet Tips:
- Keep your tension consistent while making the head, and stuff firmly as you go.
- For a neat color change, complete the last yarn over of your stitch with the new color. Keep color changes on the back side for a cleaner look.
- For a professional finish, stuff your bear firmly but evenly, especially in the head and joints. Always use stitch markers to track your rounds, and keep your tension consistent throughout for a polished look.
Assembly Tips:
- Stuff the snout before attaching and use pins to position all parts before sewing.
- When attaching limbs, ensure they're symmetrical by counting stitches carefully. Always do a final check of eyes' placement before securing.
