Bear Made With Crochet Thread

This little dollhouse teddy bear was made when I was just learning how to make tiny amigurumis. I think he turned out very cute and he has been made by many who love him. I've seen quite a few out there made with all different colors, I chose pink to make it easier for those to see the stitches in the video tutorial. Click here for Video tutorial

st = stitch
sc = single crochet
2tog = 2 stitches together
ch1 = chain one

Special notes: This is my 3rd miniature bear I've ever made so I'm no expert for sure. But I wanted to give it a try so I can fill my dollhouses with miniature crochet characters! This pattern will give you a basic bear and the video tutorial to go with the written pattern. I used crochet thread #10 and a 1.25 mm hook and worked in continuous rounds. Have any questions or if you come across a mistake in the pattern please leave a message in the comment section below.
