Partly a teddy bear
Eager to make a sweet teddy bear, after I (like I said earlier) found the homepage Made by Manne (which I really like) and his knit-along with Projekt Bamse, I too wanted to make a knitted animal. I didn’t dare to make one according to a Norwegian pattern (I’m too much of a beginner in knitting to even try to read a pattern in English – yet!)… But then a couple of weeks ago I found the book Mjuka djur och dockor from Ica-förlaget at my local library and took it home. In this book I found a lot of sweet things, amongst the others a monkey girl (maybe for later).
I started with a blue-green bear of the family Brum (made in brown in the book of course), but now I don’t know what I have landed with…
Are these green-blue parts going to end up a bear-like thing? She who comes around will know. I’m not at all sure.
But it was at good practice to knit with double pointed needles (strumpstickor), and I still have left to make a nose and two ears, maybe that is all that my teddy bear lacks? And some stuffing for hte tummie of course!
