Zippy, the Chiari Bear is 8” tall when finished.

Besides the yarn, additional materials include cotton fabric for inside the ears, thread for sewing, small red heart applique and thread for sewing, yarn needle, polyester fiberfill, 12 mm safety eyes, and some straight pins for placement.

Zippy can be made with any color combination desired. Light brown with a cream muzzle and the purple accents also looks cute. I’ve also used this pattern to make a wedding bear (silver with gold accents NOT Chiari related), and light pink with purple accents, so let your imagination guide you!
