Community Service project for Fall-Winter 2019. This is the bear I’ve been doing for years for the kids at Pine Ridge.

This is the smallest (fewest number of stitches) proportionate bear I could design, so it takes the least time to knit, uses the minimum amount of yarn and if done in multiples, takes the least freight to ship.

For larger bears, use heavier yarns/larger needles.

The two patterns are identical except for the size of paper they print on: A4 for most of the world and the other for U.S./Canada.

It’s ideal for using up scraps of yarn. The bears run about 48 grams, fully stuffed.
