easy to knit but i just cant seem to sew it up can someone please help
Just came across this beautiful pattern, can’t wait to knit it, thank you.
It’s a typo….it should say at each end…not end end. ( for the ears).
I am have great difficulty knitting the ears have tried three times already. Please help
You are right that there is some mistake in the directions, specifically in the total number of stitches you’re supposed to have. When it says that you will end up with 2 stitches, I ended up with 4, and when it says that you will end up with 6 stitches, I had 8. But the ear worked out fine. Just disregard the totals.
Did anyone do this in crochet by any chance… I don’t knit…. Love crochet. Thanks.
I am trying to sew the head together and the nose is at the end. I feel there should be more and do not know how to put it together. Can you help
I am new to sewing up, the bear was easy enough to knit just can’t seem to sew it up,please help, I need it for a gift tomorrow,thank you.
I’m knitting in the round I satead of seaming. Are the ears seamed or not?
That should say “instead of seaming”!
I don’t seam to be able to print out the patterns

Hi! I,m a beginner, and there is a few thing I don`t understand in this pattern; in the body what is ” Continue in St-St and work 9 rows.” what is st st mean ?
And for the legs after the 3 rows what do we do
Thank you very much!
I love this pattern! It’s so simple and it didn’t take too long either which is awesome- especially for me- a beginner! 😉
Thank you for shareing your pattern,all knitted and as i am a beginner my Teddy will be called “Odd Ear” for obvious reasons 😉
