My Granddaughter has become a very keen knitter, but we are both beginners. Do any of you lovely Gransnetters know of a very simple pattern to knit a small teddy bear?
We would both be very grateful!

May I suggest you look for kits? www.google.com/search?source=hp&ei=XabzXLnLEcimaPHosLgF&q=childrens+knitting+kit&oq=childrens+knitting+&gs_l=psy-ab.1.7.0l10.4055.14554..17565...2.0..0.186.2415.7j14......0....1..gws-wiz.....0..0i131j0i131i70i253j0i10j0i22i30j33i22i29i30.WQ8s55P43QA

Perhaps get two different ones and make one each.

Hello Nonnie and Grannyknot,
thank you for taking the time to reply. I do like the pattern on the ‘knit for peace’ as it’s very precise about how many rows etc. I think I will do a practise one, ready for granddaughter’s next visit. She lives just down the road, so I’d better get knitting this afternoon. You are all so kind, thank you once again.
