Pattern:


The Head & Body:

In Off-White:

This pattern is worked in rounds, so you don’t join at the end of each round with a sl st.

Round 1:

  • Make a magic ring.
  • Work 6sc into the ring.
  • Pull the ring tight to close - (6 sc)
  • You should now have a small tight circle.

Round 2:

  • Increase in every stitch.
  • That means:
    • Put 2sc into each stitch from the previous round.
    • You will make 6 increases total - (12 sc)

Round 3:

[sc, inc] × 6

  • This means:
    • Make 1sc in the first stitch
    • Make 2sc in the next stitch
  • Repeat this pattern all the way around - (18 sc)

Round 4:

[2 sc, inc] × 6

  • This means:
    • 1sc in the next 2 stitches
    • 2sc in the following stitch
  • Repeat around - (24 sc)

Round 5:

[3 sc, inc] × 6

  • This means:
    • 1sc in the next 3 stitches
    • 2sc in the next stitch
  • Repeat around - (30 sts)

Round 6-9:

  • 1 sc in every stitch
  • Do not increase or decrease - (30 sc in every round)
  • This creates the height of the teddy’s head. You will start to see a bowl shape forming.

Round 10:

[3 sc, dec] × 6

This means:

  • 1 sc in the next 3 stitches
  • Crochet 2 stitches together with the help of an invisible decrease.
  • Repeat around - (24 sts)

Check “Special Stitches” for Invisible Decrease.

Round 11:

[2 sc, dec] × 6 - (18 sc)

  • Add the safety eyes between R6 and R7 at a distance of 5 sts
  • Embroider a small nose with black/brown yarn and needle
  • Stuff the head.

Round 12:

[sc, dec] × 6 - (12 sc)

  • This section narrows the body and forms the neck.

Round 13:

  • Increase in every stitch.
  • Make 2 sc in each stitch - (24 sc)
  • This sudden increase creates the body.

Round 14-18:

1 sc in every stitch - (24 sc in each round)

  • This forms the shape of the body.

Round 19:

[2 sc, dec] × 6 - (18 sc)

Round 20:

[sc, dec] × 6 - (12 sc)

  • Before the opening becomes too small, start stuffing.

Stuffing:

  • Stuff the head and body firmly
  • Shape gently with your fingers

Round 21:

dec × 6 - (6 sc)

  • Fasten off and close the opening neatly.
