Bear with Balloon

I've been running here and there a lot recently and I hope it's about time I can slow down and enjoy the time. At this moment, I present you with a special gift. A pattern for "bear with balloon". I first saw such a cutie at haruki's harugurumi blog. I can't resist the cuteness so I try to come out with my own. It's not as cute as Haruki's but I like it and I hope you'll like him too. Kudos to Haruki for the inspiration. ;)

Now, without further ado, here is the pattern:

Pattern Note: the bear and the balloon are made in round but it's not compulsory. I used 3.5mm hook and some 8 ply acrylic scrap. You can use any yarn you like best with suitable hook. You can choose any favourite colour to make your bear too.

Head

R1. 6 sc in a magic ring
R2. 6 inc
R3. (sc, inc)x6
R4. (2sc, inc)x6
R5. (3sc, inc)x6
R6 to R9. sc around
R10. (3sc, dec)x6
R11. (2sc, dec)x6
R12. (sc, dec)x6

Finish off and leave long tail for sewing

Muzzle

R1. 6sc in a magic ring
R2. 6inc

Finish off and leave long tail

Body

R1. 6 sc in a magic ring
R2. 6 inc
R3. (sc, inc)x6
R4. (2sc, inc)x6
R5 to R6. sc around
Change yarn colour if you want to make your bear looks like he's wearing a shirt
R7. sc around
R8. (2sc, dec)x6
R9. sc around
R10. (sc, dec)x6
R11. sc around

Finish off

Ears (make 2)

R1. 6sc in magic ring
R2. 6inc
R3. sc around

Finish off and leave long tail for sewing

Hands (make 2)

R1. 6sc
R2 to R7. sc around

Finish off and leave long tail

Legs (make 2)

R1. 6sc in magic ring
R2. (sc, inc)x3
R3. sc around
R4. (sc, dec)x3
R5 to R6. sc around

Finish off and leave long tail

Assembly:

Now that we have all the parts ready, stuff the head and body and sew them together. Then, sew the muzzle, ears, hands and legs together. I did not stuff the hands and i only stuff lightly in the "bigger" part of the legs. Viola! your bear is ready now! It's time to make the balloons.

Balloons (make as many as you like that can fly your bear far far away)

R1. 6sc in a magic ring
R2. 6inc
R3. (sc, inc)x6
R4. (2sc, inc)x6
R5 to R7. sc around
R8. (2sc, dec)
R9. sc around
R10. (sc, dec)x6
R11. sc around
R12. (sc, dec)x4
R13. 4(dec)

Finish off and leave long tail to tie to the bear's hand. Repeat as many as you want your bear to have the balloons. ;)

Now your bear can go up, up and away!


Note: You can make your bear your own way with the guidance of this pattern. Please DO NOT sell this pattern and do not claim it as yours. It is mine and please have a respect to it if you call yourself an artist. Thank you
