Teddy Bear Dress with Shawl, PDF pattern
About the Design
I have acquired several teddy bears, in different sizes and styles. One looks like terry cloth, and one is very soft and furry. They all seem to have specific genders, as well.
Alanna¨, the 13″ bear, for whom this was designed, is definitely a girl teddy. She’s so sweet, that I thought a dress and shawl would suit her perfectly.
This outfit is knit circularly, in Brown Sheep Top of The Lamb Sport, for a lightweight dress and shawl, that has minimal finishing, just sew on the buttons and tack the lower edge and neck picots to the WS.
