A cute bear from a free pattern
I made this bear a while ago, and then gave him to my sister-in-law without taking a picture. But I smuggled him away for some documentation while we were visiting at Christmas.
I used this pattern, but instead of the Berroco Foliage I used GGH Esprit and I used either size 10 or 10 1/2 needles (I can't remember) instead of the 11s in the pattern. His legs and belly and head are all made round by short rows, and I think the shape turns out really cute. If I was to knit another, I would go down to 9s to make it harder for the stuffing to poke out.
