What You’ll Need
Here’s what you’ll need to bring your Teddy Bear Glasses Holder to life:
- Yarn: Medium thickness (4) in the color of your choice
- Hook: 4.5mm crochet hook
- Stitch marker
- Safety eyes (optional) or black yarn for embroidered eyes
- Black yarn (for the nose)
- Tapestry needle
- Polyester fiberfill (for stuffing)
The Pattern
Follow these step-by-step instructions to crochet your bear:
Body
- Start with 15 chains.
- Work 13 single crochets (sc) along the chain.
- When you reach the 14th stitch, make 3 single crochets into the same stitch (this creates the rounded end of the oval).
- Place a stitch marker in the middle stitch of this set of three – this marks the edge of your oval and helps you know where to add increases later.
- Continue working single crochets around the chain, placing 3 sc into the sides of the oval to maintain its shape. Repeat this for 8 rounds total.
- After completing the oval, crochet 2 additional rounds with no increases to create height for the bear’s body.
Ears (make 2):
- Make 6 single crochets in a magic ring (mr).
- Increase in each stitch from the previous round (12 stitches total).
- Complete 1 round of single crochet (12 stitches).
- Alternate 1 single crochet, 1 increase around (18 stitches).
- Fasten off, leaving a long tail for sewing.
Snout
- Make 6 single crochets in a magic ring (mr).
- Increase in all stitches (12 stitches total).
- Complete 1 round of single crochet (12 stitches).
- Alternate 1 single crochet, 1 increase around (18 stitches).
- Crochet 2 rounds of single crochet (18 stitches).
- Begin decreasing in the back loop only (blo) to create the rounded shape, finishing with 9 stitches.
- Add a nose using black yarn and lightly stuff the snout with fiberfill.
- Close the opening and leave a long tail for sewing.
Putting It All Together
- Sew the ears to the top sides of the body using the tails you left.
- Attach the snout to the front center of the body.
- Insert safety eyes or embroider the eyes with black yarn, positioning them above the snout.
