Its been a while since I made a bear, apart from some ornaments and a wee crocheted one for Christmas. Bear making comes and goes in waves with me and lately I had been bit by the knitting bug. But I had all these real fur pieces lying around, not getting any better, from a few years ago when I discovered real fur bears and Nancy Tillbergs book about them. So now I thought, I need to do something with them and made another blonde mink bear. I used Nancy's pattern for a modern bear from "101 bears..." I particularly like the head pattern. He's a big guy (for me) with bent legs, sitting at 31 cm (about 12 inches). I was going for puffy cheeks, but I think the fur was too short for that and I can't get it really smooth. Oh well, I love him anyway. He's heavy and so soft in fur.
PaHe's very cute and he looks so soft and cuddly.

Bine-TeddiesThank you Sandy! Nancy's patterns do work out great.
Thanks Sophie! He is sososo soft, but his fur looks more golden brown in reality than in the photo.
