Basic crochet and amigurumi skills, you will need to know how to make an invisible single crochet decrease, a magic circle and how crochet in the round. Feel free to e-mail me if you have any questions, I will answer as quickly as possible. Also check out my instagram and send me photos of your final creations!

Abbreviations US Terms

ch = chain sc = single crochet stitch inc = single crochet increase (make 2 sc into 1 stitch) dec = single crochet decrease (2 sc together but I prefer to use the invisible decrease technique which is single crocheting 2 stitches together through the front loops) st(s) = stitch(es) * = repeat instructions around

Materials 2.75 mm crochet hook worsted weight yarn Lily Sugar ‘n Cream in Jute & Warm Brown yarn needle sewing pins 4 - 6mm safety eyes 4 - 9mm safety eyes stitch marker or extra piece of yarn scissors

rnd(s) = round(s)

soft stuffing

F/O = fasten off

Black or Dark Brown yarn for nose Lion Brand BonBons (Nature pack)

[ ] = total number of stitches you should have for the round

{Optional}

Worsted weight yarn for Accessories

pink felt fabric glue

Before you begin...

This doll is crocheted in the round from the feet to the head as almost one piece, the arms, ears and tail will be the only pieces sewn on. These bears can be made with any size yarn or hook size it just totally depends on how big you want your bears to be. My bear using the recommended yarn and hook size came out to be about 8” and the bitty bear was 4.5”. You can make however many bears you want and the accessories are completely optional and removable. Papa Bear and Mama Bear are both made from the same pattern so if you want both just use the Bear Pattern and make 2! I will be releasing clothing and accessory packs for the bears soon so favorite my etsy shop to receive updates!

You can now breathe a sigh of relief - you are finished with Bitty Bear(s)! I hope you enjoyed making them as much as I enjoyed creating them!! If you wish cut some pink felt into ovals and use a permanent washable fabric glue (like Fabric-Tac) and glue them on.
