Brown Bear


Another knitted toy! This time I got the pattern from a seller, Purl, on www.Etsy.com! A great pattern, easy to follow and lots of fun. I modified a little. The pattern called for felt (that cheap craft stuff) for the ears and the flowered eyes. I instead knit a swatch of cloth for each color, felted and cut them from that. Sure, do think I'm pretty clever. The hands have bells in them to make for a hard chewing surface, which is a big plus in Eowyn's book...teeth are on their way. I'll brag a little and point out that I made the dress she's wearing in the picture, too!
