A Few Tips Before You Start

Take a quick second to read these. They save you from small headaches later.

Mark the last stitch of each round with a stitch marker. The body has long plain rounds, so it is easy to lose your place. Also, keep your tension snug but not stiff. Tight stitches hide the stuffing and give that smooth, chubby finish. And remember, both bears follow the exact same steps, only the color changes.

How to Make the Bears

Make one bear in brown and one in white. The steps are the same for both, so you can work them side by side if you like. Take your time on the first one, and the second will feel like a breeze.

Body and Legs

Start from the leg in your chosen color.

• Rnd 1. MR 6 sc (6)
• Rnd 2. 6 inc (12)
• Rnds 3–4. 12 sc (12)

Fasten off and cut the yarn. Crochet the second leg the same way, but this time do not cut the yarn. Make ch 2, then join the two legs together.

• Rnd 5. 12 sc + 2 sc + 12 sc + 2 sc (28)
• Rnd 6. 2 sc, (sc, inc)*12, 2 sc (40)
• Rnd 7. 8 sc, inc, 20 sc, inc, 10 sc (42)
• Rnd 8. 3 sc, inc, (6 sc, inc)*5, 3 sc (48)
• Rnds 9–14. 48 sc (48)
• Rnd 15. 3 sc, dec, (6 sc, dec)*5, 3 sc (42)
• Rnd 16. (5 sc, dec)*6 (36)
• Rnd 17. (5 sc, inc)*6 (42)
• Rnd 18. 3 sc, inc, (6 sc, inc)*5, 3 sc (48)
• Rnds 19–21. 48 sc (48)
• Rnd 22. 3 sc, dec, (6 sc, dec)*5, 3 sc (42)
• Rnds 23–24. 42 sc (42)
• Rnd 25. (5 sc, dec)*6 (36)
• Rnd 26. 36 sc (36)
• Rnd 27. 2 sc, dec, (4 sc, dec)*5, 2 sc (30)
• Rnd 28. (3 sc, dec)*6 (24)
• Rnd 29. (2 sc, dec)*6 (18)
• Rnd 30. (sc, dec)*6 (12)
• Rnd 31. 6 dec (6)

Weave in the ends. Insert the eyes between Rnds 22 and 23, about 7 stitches apart. Then stuff the bear nice and chubby.

Ears (make two)

Work these in the same color as the body.

• Rnd 1. MR 5 sc (5)
• Rnd 2. 5 inc (10)
• Rnd 3. 10 sc (10)

Fasten off and leave a long tail for sewing. Sew each ear between Rnds 26 and 29.

Arms (make two)

Again, match the arms to the body color.

• Rnd 1. MR 5 sc (5)
• Rnd 2. 5 inc (10)
• Rnds 3–6. 10 sc (10)

Fasten off and leave a long tail for sewing. Sew each arm between Rnds 14 and 16.

Skill Level

This is a beginner-friendly project. You only need basic stitches, increases, decreases, and the magic ring. Joining the legs takes a moment of focus, but it stays simple throughout.

Ways to Customize Your Bears

Want to make them your own? There is plenty of room to play around. These bears are like a blank canvas, so do not be shy. Try a few of these.

• Switch up the colors. Black, grey, or pastel bears look just as sweet.
• Add a tiny scarf, bow, or hat for a bit of personality.
• Drop down to a smaller hook for a mini keychain version.
• Give each bear a slightly different face for a playful contrast.
• Use fuzzy or velvet yarn for an extra soft, snuggly feel.
• Make a whole little bear family in graded sizes.

Honestly, half the fun is mixing and matching. So go ahead and experiment until your pair feels just right.

Mistakes Worth Watching For

A couple of easy slip-ups can trip you up. Watch out for these as you go.

• Cutting the yarn on the second leg, which makes the join impossible.
• Stuffing too lightly, so the bear ends up flat instead of round.
• Setting the eyes too high or spacing them too far apart.
• Losing your count during those long 48 sc rounds.
• Sewing the ears unevenly, which throws the whole face off.

Finishing Touches

These final steps really pull the look together. They take just a few extra minutes, but they make a big difference. So do not skip them.

• Stuff firmly and shape as you go for a plump, rounded body.
• Pin the ears and arms first, then check placement before you sew.
• Keep the eye spacing even for a sweet, balanced expression.
• Weave in every tail so nothing comes loose down the road.
• Give the finished bear a gentle squeeze to settle the filling.
