Hello all,
New year, new pattern? I was at my grandparent's place last week and had great time! This little winter teddy started as
Zackie Zebra, while I was testing my old pattern. But you can see what happened when I was using blue yarn?
Winter bear (size about 20cm/8inches)
You need:
Any colour cotton yarn you like ( I
used blue DK yarn)
A pair off 3mm needles
