Hi guys! I'm new here, I've been going through the library and everything everyone's written and it seems like a really fantastic community and you guys are all so talented! 

I'm working on my fourth bear now, the second with my own 'pattern' (I'm doing my best but it's hard to start with!) but he's being made out of my scrap mohair and so is turning into a mismatched panda with a jumper on 

Anyway! My question is what joint sizes (cotter pins) should I order? Is there a specific sort of pattern, like a different size joint dependant on the size of your bear? The last one I made had the joints sent with it because I asked for joints for a 12inch bear and they have 35mm written on them, but I think this is the washer size?

So.. basically, what size washers, little metal washers and actual pins do you use?

I really hope someone can help because I'm stuck until I order new joints!

I will post some pictures soon!!
