Princess Bear Play Set Free Crochet Pattern

Pattern #: LW5516

Designed by: Michelle Wilcox

Skill Level: Easy

In her pretty ruffled gown and brilliant crown, this bear is ready for hours of fantasy playtime. Crochet her as a gift and make a child feel special.

Materials:

RED HEART® Super Saver®: 1 skein each of 360 Café Latte A, 722 Pretty in Pink B, 373 Petal Pink C, 520 Minty D, 324 Bright Yellow E, and 312 Black F Note: Only small amounts of E and F are needed

Crochet Hook: 3.75 mm [US F-5]

Yarn needle

Stitch marker

Stuffing

Gauge/Tension:     12 sts = 3″; 14 rows = 3″ in single crochet. CHECK YOUR GAUGE. Use any size hook to obtain the gauge.

Notes

1. Gauge is not critical for this project. Work tightly so stuffing will not show between stitches.

2. To change color, work last stitch of old color to last yarn over. Yarn over with new color and draw through all loops on hook to complete stitch. Proceed with new color. Fasten off old color.

3. Use photograph as a guide for placement of pieces to be sewn together.
