Bluebeary ★free pattern★

Because I see in the statistics that a lot of people from the USA visit my blog I decided to translate some of my new patterns into English.

As English is not my mother tongue please let me know if there are any mistakes in the pattern or faults in my wording! Thank you very much! 😊

I'm afraid I have forgotten a lot... I only speak a few words in English two or three times a year.

Usually we spend our holidays in Italy (because it's not far away) or in Egypt. I also speak Italian and after learning Arabic for two years and living one year in Egypt, there is no need to talk English when I go abroad.

But I'm sure my translations will be a bit better than those from Google Translator and I hope it will be easier for my english speaking visitors to read my patterns! 😊

Have fun with my amigurumi!

With hook Nr. 3,5 the Bluebeary is approximately 30 cm tall and measures 25 cm from one arm to the other.

Abbrevations (US Terms)

V: increase (The letter V looks like the crochet symbol for increasing!)

A: decrease (The letter A nearly looks like the crochet symbol for decreasing!)

x6: repeat 6 times

ch: chain

ss: slip stitch

sc: single crochet

hdc: half double crochet

dc: double crochet

tr: treble crochet

BLO: Back Loop Only

Notes

Crochet in continuous spiral rounds.

Use the invisible decrease (only the front loops of both stitches).

I always split my increases and decreases.

You can use any yarn but use a smaller hook than suggested to avoid holes after filling.

Sew or glue the leaves onto the body to avoid that they point upwards.

Take 50 Cent and cut a circle out of white felt for the eyes.

Don’t forget to place safety eyes and a teddy bear nose before you close the head.

Embroider eyebrows and a mouth.
