Every new baby needs a teddy bear. When I saw Laura Long’s Knitted Toy Tales in a library I knew my baby will have a knitted teddy as her first. The pattern is a joy to work with and surprisingly quick to knit. The sewing up and stuffing took a bit of experimenting since it’s my first time making stuffed anything. My favorite part was adding the vintage cotton print patches to the ears and paws.
Tomorrow is baby’s due date and Mr Teddy is waiting for her arrival!
