Crochet Teddies - Scrappy Ted and Golden Ted




Scrappy Ted and Golden Ted

Everyone loves a Teddy !  




Requirements:
DK yarn
3.5 mm hook
Polyester Stuffing

For Scrappy Ted - I used a scrappy ball of DK yarn and a 3.5mm hook




Worked flat – and in double crochet throughout

①       Start with the first leg – 8sts wide
            Work until 7cm have been worked
            Cut off the yarn
            Leave this leg aside for later

②       Work the second leg – 8sts wide
            Work until 7cm have been worked
            Do Not cut off the yarn ~

③       Continue across first leg then second leg to join the body
            Continue on these 16sts until a further 6cm have been worked

④       Add on a further 8sts at each side to make the arms (by making a chain at each side)
            Continue on these 32sts until a further 4cm have been worked

⑤       Work 24sts, turn,
work 16sts, turn (these 16sts form the head)
Continue on these 16sts until a further 7cm have been worked

This completes the Front of the Ted ~ continue for the Back


⑥       Continue on these 16sts until a further 7cm have been worked

⑦       Add on a further 8sts at each side to make the arms (by making a chain at each side)
            Continue on these 32sts until a further 4cm have been worked

⑧       Work 24sts, turn,
work 16sts, turn (these 16sts form the body)
Continue on these 16sts until a further 6cm have been worked

⑨       Work 8sts, turn, (these 8sts form the first leg)
Continue on these 8sts until a further 7cm have been worked
Cut off the yarn

⑩       Rejoin yarn for the second leg and work across remaining 8sts
            Work until 7cm have been worked
            Cut off the yarn

For Scrappy Ted - Make sure that all the joining knots are on the wrong side (you can pull them through with the crochet hook)

Join the Teddy all around (right sides together) using a length of yarn and a sewing needle, leaving a gap to use for stuffing

Turn right side out

Add features to the face using a length of dark coloured yarn

Create ears by sewing a line across the top of the head at each side

Stuff the Teddy with polyester toy filling and close up the gap

 If you would like to make a smaller Teddy ( 6½ สบ) - you will find my instructions on this link ~
