ReplyDeleteHe's lovely. Last time I tried to make a bear it looked more like a mouse so I made it a tail! This one looks more like a bear to me. Will have to try it. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteHow lovely he's so cute, Marianna you never cease to amaze me, do you ever sleep? :) xx
ReplyDeleteThese teddy bears are so cute. Maybe I can make them up with my left over bits and bobs. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteHow do you make the second piece for the top anyone I've never made a teddy before and would really love to make this thanks in advance
ReplyDeleteGot it now everyone didn't read instructions right x
ReplyDeleteStill don't get the ear bit though x
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone have any clothes patterns to fit wilfred looked on loads of sites and can't find any x
ReplyDeleteMarianna, You are amazing, I always rave about your patterns to all my knitter friends.
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU so much, enjoy your day!
Marianna, I am still confused about the ear part. I never had any problems with your patterns they are always so well written but I am missing something here. Can you please shed some light.
ReplyDeleteAgain, I appreciate so much
I haven't made this pattern yet Rajni Ohri but I have made things using a similar technique. The head is made more or less a square and to make the ears, you flatten the head "square" and stitch a diagonal section on either side of the top of the head (square section) which form the ears. It's like stitching a triangle shape for the top left and top right of the head section. I hope this helps.
ReplyDeleteNot sure how to knit across then cast on 12 for arms
ReplyDeleteNot sure how to cast on 12 after knitting across for arms
ReplyDeleteDepending on which cast on method you use - you may have to turn your work to cast on.
DeleteI've made a few in different colours and I love making them 🥰 thank you for sharing.
