Pattern Instructions
Step 1: Teddy’s Arms (Make 2)
- Use white yarn and begin with a magic ring.

- Round 2:
- Ch 1. Work 1 SC in the first stitch.
- SC in the next stitch.

- Rounds 3 to 5: Work 1 SC in each stitch around (total: 8 SC).

- Round 6: Fold the piece in half and join opposite stitches together using 4 SC to create a flat end.
- Fasten off and leave a long tail for sewing. Repeat to make the second arm.
Step 2: Teddy’s Ears (Make 2)
- Use black yarn and create a magic ring.
- Secure the magic ring with a chain stitch.
- Work 7 SC into the magic ring. Pull the tail to close the ring tight.
- Do not join the round with a slip stitch. Instead, fasten off directly and leave a long tail for sewing.

- Start with a magic ring using white yarn.
- Round 1: Work 6 SC into the magic ring. Tighten and join with a slip stitch.

- Ch 1. Work 2 SC in each stitch around (Inc in every stitch). Total: 12 SC.
- Rounds 3 to 5: Work 1 SC in each stitch around (total: 12 SC).

- Joining the Legs:
- Continue working SC around the unfastened leg, then connect it to the first leg with SC stitches (total: 24 SC around both legs).

- Round 22 (Increase): After a few rounds of 1 SC per stitch, increase by working every 4th stitch into 2 SC.
- Rounds 23 to 25 (Decrease): Gradually decrease by merging every few stitches into 1 SC to shape the head.
