Cubby Bear is Louie Bear’s little brother. Knit from head to toe with two strands of worsted weight wool yarn, he is knit in a single piece without seaming. Cubby is then felted in a washing machine and stuffed with fiberfill. His face is simple embroidery with optional safety eyes. Since Cubby is felted, he is more durable than your average bear. In fact, he can take so much loving, he might just might become a family heirloom!

Cubby’s red vest is included with the pattern.
