A teddy bear onesie using double knit, with either plain or an easy fair isle pattern.
The pattern is in stocking stitch throughout with the legs made first then joined to continue with the body and raglan shaping for the arms. As the pattern is to fit a 15”/17” Build a bear, which are the ‘sit down’ type of bear, there is a lot of shaping at the back using short rows (Iv’e given full instructions for this - its really easy). If your bear isn’t this type its easy enough to reduce the shaping.

I used a self striping yarn (King Cole Cherish) for the plain onesie, with a plain contrast yarn which gives a lovely effect. The red and white fair isle would be great for the festive season.

If you made this onesie please add a photo and if you find any mistakes please let me know.
