My first sock Teddy Bear

A nice couple

It´s so easy to do!


You only have to follow these instructions and you will get a cute sock bear like this.

As you can see, you will need:
  • Two socks, one is the majority of the bear, the other you will need a small amount of the bear's nose. 
  • Marker or something to draw your shapes for cutting
  • Scissors
  • Stuffing
  • Thread
  • Needle
  • 3 small buttons, 2 for the eyes and 1 for the mouth, you can choose the color you like and any other litte embellishments you want to dress up your little friend.
Instructions
  1. Flip your sock inside out and draw the head and ears at the toe end. The heel becomes his little bum and you draw out the legs on the other side of that. The rest of the sock cuff becomes his arms.
  2. Cut out the head shape and then trim a very small portion off the end of the toe. This will become the neck hole where you will stuff.
  3. Then cut out legs and arms
  4. Keeping your sock inside out, sew around the ears, legs and arms. You can do this by hand or use your machine. Leave the ends open on the arms so you can stuff before attaching to the body. 
  5. Flip everything right side out and begin stuffing 
  6. Hand stitch the head closed and then do the same to the neck of the body.
  7. Cut out a piece from the other sock to create his little muzzle. Cut out an oval shape and sew it 
  8. Attach your 2 little eyes, and nose. I used 1 grey button to create his nose and 2 brown buttons to create the eyes.
  9. Stich on his little arms
  10. If you want, you can add any little embellishments to give him some character

  2. Hay que hacer todo tipo de osos: sin brazos, sin piernas, con un sólo ojo, guapos y feos. Un beso Lore!
