These Canadian brown bears are just waking up from a long winter’s nap and looking for someone to cuddle!…don’t worry, they don’t bite!

Pattern is written in US crochet terms and includes instructions for two bears (a mama and her cub), their cave, and a rug to make their home cozy, which doubles as a blanket/Canadian flag. The baby bear, cave and blanket require no seaming.

I always use small hooks to achieve a tight fabric, but some people may like to use a slightly larger hook with worsted weight yarn for ease. Please be aware that materials given are only a suggestion.
