Pattern does not finish off and you have to apply for something else
Kathy, what do you need more for this pattern? There are ears, head, body, arms, legs and tail.
You need assembly instructions to finish it off, you end up with all the pieces but no idea where to connect them to create this adorable teddy
Use the picture of the completed bear to assemble, it’s easy enough to do!!
What u help where a head goes on a body and shere arms and legs go on and body and ears on a head is it not obvious or am I missing something
You say there are instructions for a tail. No, there isn’t one. Would be nice to get that but for now I’ll just try to figure it out on my own.
Bears dont have tails….🤐
technically they do :0
IT DOES FINISH OFF….WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!!!
It also has no stuffing instructions.
Why didn’t you include the instructions on how to put it together it would have been very helpful thank you for the patent
How can I buy this line? I’m from Brazil
eu compro pela aliexpress
Le orecchie mi sembrano incomplete
they are not incomplete, you have a flat piece that you just attach with 2-3 stitches 😉 it curles on its own
There is only the pattern, no finishing off instructions.
Diane, don’t wait so much from free patterns. To have a full amigururmi tutorial you can buy any pattern at Etsy.
Thank you for the pattern it’s super cute!
Also what hook size do you recommend?
bjr, adorable ces petits nounours,je craque tellement ils sont jolis.combien de hauteur font ils ?,svp.je prend votre modele avec plaisir ,je vais faire ces jolis nounours pour des bébés premas.je vous remercie pour ce modele gratuit mise a dispositoin de toutes (tous) les crocheteurs.
Adorable little bear. Assembly? No problem, head to body, arms to shoulders, legs to bottom of body, ears, nose to head. Simples
I agree Fran…. look at pictures and figure out what body parts goes where! LOL
The body ends at round 12, no hook size, no assembly, and bears do have short stumpy tails. But free is free and I get it, some people here are beginners and need it explained to complete, don’t bother saying free if it’s not complete with instructions.
What size hook is used?
It says 4. 5mm for velour.
Agree instructions are vague.
Are arms and legs and muzzle stuffed?
if you look on the back of your yarn it will tell you what size of needle is compatible with the yarn.
The instructions to the plush bear toy is misleading as the finished bear from your instructions doesn’t look close to your posted photos. I crochet more than hundreds of amigurumi but yours is most disappointing. Hope u will have the correct instructions to the plush bear toy
TAIL?where? I do not see it. please telle me it
R1. 2ch, 6sc 2nd ch from hook (6).
R2 (inc)×6 (12)
R3 (dec)×6 (6)
F. O.
That is for the tail.
Thank you finally someone can give us the tail
Amigurumi needs to be quite tight with normal yarn. So you use the hook to leave the least gaps. With this chenille yarn however you don’t have to use a greatly smaller hook as the fluffy yarn texture helps fill the gaps.
bjr, combien faut il de pelotes pour faire un nounours merci beaucoup
what size eyes was used for this pattern please?
absolutely adorable free pattern i used Bernat baby blanket and i am in love with this pattern very well written and easy to assemble by the pictures provided as well as just knowing where body parts belong. if your bear doesn’t look like the pic are you using the same type yarn because made with different yarn it will not look like the picture been there tried that lol. Love it and thank you so much for sharing it.
What size hook did you use?
Forget it, I must have missed the hook size. 4.5mm.
I also used bernat blanket yarn. Sewing it together now. Looking adorable.
For those of you complaining there’s no assembly instructions… If you’ve made amigurumi before, you really don’t need instructions.
If you haven’t, just look at the finished bear… Simple enough to count rows to figure it out.
As for the tail… Make a magic ring just like all the other pieces… Create a circle big enough to be a tail and attach it. 🙃
Yes I agree 100% with Cindy Franklin ! Thank you for taking out (your time )to give us this pattern Have a blessed day
Thanks for sharing it is so cute n pattern turned out adorable and well written
Sometimes I wonder why anyone would even bother to supply a free pattern when they get so many complaints. How about just saying thank you or paying for a pattern. I apologise for the rant.
I totally agree and I cant believe people are asking how to asemble it, if people don’t know on a bear where its body parts go they must gave serious problems because the kids I use to teach in nursery aged 3 knew where your head eyes ears arms legs etc were 🤣🤣🤣
concordo assolutamente
Love your pattern however just one question, how would you close off the neck at the body once stuffed?
i crochet the head and body in one piece,once your done with the body the end of head indicated in the pattern has same number of stitches on the body,so i just work from bottom of instruction up,if the pattern says decrease,you do increase (opposite)and you end up on number 1 of the head pattern. goodluck!
Didn’t think of it that way, how clever! I must try it! I hate sewing head to body because the neck is always floppy
Thanks again
for the tail: i make 3 chain on the 23rd stitch on row 5, slip stich on ch 1 and then continue Sc on 24th st. or you can make those chains for tail wherever you want the tail would be.
Wow thanks it’s work
I love it. Thank you for providing this for free.
Where do i put the eyes oil
on the head!!
Thank you SO much!!!!!!’🥰
I used size J hook and found it quite easily made and put together. Thank you for the free pattern.
It looks adorable. Thank you for the pattern. How big will it be when using Himalaya yarn?
Some of the comments on here made me laugh 😂 . Just starting this , Great idea Ana doing the body and head all in one . And a big thank you for the free pattern .
I love this little bear.
Used Bernat baby blanket and it came out perfectly with safety eyes and a safety nose.
Thank you so much!
It’s going to make lots of small children happy this Christmas.
Thank you!
I made this & it turned out cute. I used bernat velvet yarn with 4mm hook. My arms & legs looked different than the picture which made me question the pattern. I did add my own tail & it’s cute.
hermoso patrón, muchas gracias por tener ese espíritu desprendido y generoso para compartir estas bellezas
Cute. I have some plush yarn; I’m going to give it a try.
Thanks for sharing.
Hi everyone.
I sort of understand that a newbie to crochet and amigurumi would need a bit more help with putting the limbs onto the body. It’s frustrating to have to remove after it’s all sewn on. Pinning limbs on 1st is helpful but not always.
My wish is that the safety eyes had a designation in the pattern. We have all put them in only to see they aren’t correct/perfect. They cannot be removed once the head is closed.
Rudeness is unacceptable when commenting on a FREE pattern, but even more so when comments are directed to a crafter who obviously is a novice.
Darling pattern. Thanks for sharing. For others who may need more detail, I’ve rewritten with more specifics: Muzzle Use 4mm hook using alternate color of bulky yarn. Make a chain of 7 Rnd 1: begin in second ch: 5sc, 3sc in 1 loop, continue on the other side of the chain: 4sc, inc (14sc) Rnd 2: 1 ch, inc, 4 sc, (inc)repeat 3 times, 4 sc, (inc)repeat 2 times (20) (Optional) Rnd 3: 1 ch, inc, 5 sc, (1 sc, inc) repeat 4 times, 5 sc, inc (26). Insert safety nose or embroider nose.

Come on people. Its for free.
Thank you for that lovely pattern. 😍
Rudeness is unacceptable, someone was just asking for a little help and pictures are not always very clear to see where to attach the other parts. Free doesn’t mean that all of the instructions do not have to be there. Especially If your new to crocheting.
did the bear up this evening, very cute. had no problem with pattern! thanks
VERY GOOD AND CUTE BEAT
