Meet Samuel! He is a little bear with a big belly who is ready for some big fun!

He can be made in any yarn and hook combination you want. Just be certain that the fabric is firm enough that stuffing does not show through.

My teddy bear is made in Vanna’s Choice Solids using two colors.

• Toffee (100 yards)
• Beige (15 yards)

Samuel is a beginner-level pattern. Skills you will need include single crochet, increases, decreases, and some seaming.

The pattern has plenty of progress photos to help you along your way to making your teddy bear.
