This is my first "micro" bear. he's 1,5" tall (just over 1" when sitting) It's been difficult making this tiny thing! turning limbs and threading those 1mm eyes was a nightmare but I guess (hope) it'll be easier next time.
I've used an easy to sew vintage fabric and I wonder how people can make a micro-bear out of mohair !
desertmountainbearYou have put so much detail in this little one. I would never guess she was so little. My hats off to you!

Oh! So adorable! 
You've done a great job on such a tiny, tiny little one... I know how hard it is to make them! 
The Littlest ThistleOh my! The smallest I've gone is 4", which isn't really that small, well done!
What a cutie! I too wonder how folks can make teddies so small much less out of mohair. Wonderful job :clap:

Chaska, MinnesotaWhat a cute bear!!! As for making them out of mohair, you may look at Sasy's for mini bear fabric in mohair....
MalagaThank you all for your kind words.
I know Sassy fabrics very well :-)
She has wonderful synthetics but have not tried her mohair furs yet (i'll check on her website right now)
And yes, foot pads are difficult, but I managed to sculpt toes on a 1,5" bunny! It was fun needle sculpting those tiny little toes
:-)
Bear-HandsWhat a sweet little bear Ana, i love sassy fabrics to just so expensive importing direct here in Portugal.
keep up the good work.
hugs Susan

Feather Heart CreationsOh what a cute tiny bear! I'm working on my first micro bear as we speak but have never tried anything under 4" with mohair...I would love to find some "micro" mohair
Sarian Miniature BearsWhat a great micro bear, especially for your first one. It's easy to become hooked on making minis - I know I am!
It is possible to make minis from mohair, and the Sassy mohair is very good for this, though you can use the regular fabrics too but use Fraycheck. The smallest I tend to go with a mohair bear is around 3" tall, but it does depend on your pattern and the size of the limbs etc. If they are too narrow they can be difficult to turn even with forceps. In the past I've managed to tear some of my pieces when turning them, which is very frustrating especially when you have managed to turn one limb already!
Good luck with your next micro mini
Hugs,
Posts: 16Help!! Does anyone have a website where I can buy or download knitting directions for clothes for miniature bears?
LALand BearsSo adorable and so tiny.. Love him
I have caught "the bug" also...working on minis now, becoming acquainted with Sassy fabrics and have tried various ones. The smallest I can go is 2.75" and I feel all thumbs :crackup:
Kind Regards
