I have been crocheting for many years and can figure this out but I have to say I’m a little disappointed at the incomplete assembly instructions for this very adorable bear.
I think that there’s a mistake in the muzzle. number of stiches doesn’t add up. However i’m making second bear this yaer. It’s cute š
Paulina, there is no mistake in the muzzle, Don’t count stitches as usually and don’t use the stitch marker, crochet how it is written.
I just finished a bear following this pattern and I love him so much! It’s a shame that I cannot post a picture because he it so CUTE <3 Thanks for sharing your pattern!
Crochet pattern Bear in a Sweater. Iām curious on how you attached the head. I tried sewing through the back loop of the collar, Iām ok with it but would welcome another option.
Imade this and crocheted the head directly onto the body. If you work the head portion backwards and do decreases where it says increase it works out perfectly and no sewing!!!
I am unsure how to attach the head to the collar. There are no instructions, or pictures to help. Please post directions or a picture showing yhe attachment
