There's one at planet-teddybear.com.  I referenced it when I started working on my polar bear pattern.  I'm not sure how that works if you're making them for resale.  You may want to use some or most of it, and change it up some ... or contact the owner (?)

Is that the pattern from planet-teddybear.com?  He's great.  I am finishing up a polar bear, but I'm not real thrilled with him.  I made my own pattern and used a short alpaca and ... I don't know ... but we'll see.  Should be finished this weekend. 

Great job!

As for snowman, I make bear's head and round body with arms and no legs. Sounds awful  bear_shocked but looks good. bear_thumb bear_whistle
