“Tyler” is a tuckered out little teddy. He is a wonderful cuddly size and will make a perfect gift for any child or grown up “kid at heart.” He is approximately 12 inches long when knitted with worsted weight yarn. Knit in the round, and is entirely seamless. If you aren’t crazy about seaming and have wanted to try a seamless pattern this is a great beginner project.

All of my patterns are for knitting with dp needles and knitting in the round. No more wasted time trying to sew all those little pieces together. Knitting in the round is really quite easy and much faster than flat knitting. My patterns are written so that they are easy to follow, and include photos and instructions to help you. If you haven’t tried making a toy yet, give it a try, your in for a very pleasant surprise!
