This pink fuzzy bear is a commission from my sister. I made him using my Fuzzy Bear pattern. Hope you like him, Dawn: He’s quite a bit bigger than the original bear, because I used a different yarn, but the pattern worked perfectly. Now I’ve tested the pattern I am confident about making it available for sale (look out – it will […]

Final dimensions are 2.00m x 1.55m (79″ x 61″) and it weighs 2.1kg (4.3lb). It’s so large I’m having difficulty getting a good picture! Here is […]
