Easy patterns and a joy to knit
Lovely easy knit I m sure many little ones will love this.
Since doing this patt I have made 8 more cottages different colours but filled with woodland safari .pets. farmyard. Halloween.and grotto. The only thing idid to the patt was line the bags which gives a better strength and hides inside sewing.
Ten tiny bears with cottage. Love it love it love it. I’m addicted to making these bears. They work up so quickly and you can add your own ideas as you go😍. Such cute ideas. Making for our library fundraiser. All monies go to our library. Thank you for this great pattern.
I love making these little bears and found that once I had got to know the pattern I could vary the 'clothes' as I wish. I'm going to make some 'Christmas' bears with a loop attached to hang as tree ornaments. My daughter has asked if could make a 'David Bowie' bear, so I am working on that! I will make the cottage one day, but meanwhile am continuing with these little ones. Thank you.
The pattern was easy to follow and accompanied by excellent photos. The results are adorable!
Great little project, takes longer to sew than knIt! Very happy wIth pattern
Easy to make and a charming little bag and bears. The bears can be personalised according to the child they’re for.
Little girl up the road is having a baby sister so having knitted a matinee jacket for the baby thought it would be nice to knit 10 tiny bears for her and I put the number of her house on the door. She was delighted with it, a great success. I printed off a picture of all the bears so she knew their names. I will be knitting the pattern again. A great way to use up the odds and ends of wool that I have as well. Thank you.
They are tiny and gorgeous. I am making them for the Christmas Shoe Box appeal, for orphans in large institutions in countries like Romania. At this time I am not making the bag. The pattern is clear and easily followed. They are a little fiddly to make but well worth the effort.
