Lucas the Teddy Bear Pattern - Amigurumi Crochet

Lucas the Teddy Bear (We´re one but we´re not the same!)

My latest three teddy bears: made with Lucas the Teddy Bear Pattern  The original Lucas the teddy bear pattern calls for hook size number 2, but here I used 3mm crochet hook for the very first time in my life. :) I use 2.5mm hook with most of my yarns, they are often DK/Worsted weight or 2mm with Sports weight for smaller ones like this mini bunny.

Lucas the Teddy Bear works with all kind of yarn and hook sizes, design won´t change. Excellent. And I like to follow my patterns on a smartphone. :)

I used Scheepjes Stone Washed XL yarn (Yellow Jasper), 3mm crochet hook, 8mm hand-painted safety eyes, cotton thread for the nose. Needed 3 balls/skeins on the dot of this beautiful yarn - 150 grams. I recommend buying 4, just in case, if you´d want to try with a 3.5mm crochet hook as well. 

I followed more or less this list:

1st ball: legs, ears, a tail

2nd ball: a body, a hand

3rd ball: second hand, a head

They would make such a nice gift for triplets :)

You can give your time by giving someone a teddy bear you´ve crocheted up yourself. Big and small at the same time. Teddy bear is a lifetime friend - a timeless keepsake.

I also bought Stone Washed XL Moon Stone and some other colors, want to make more crochet teddy bears, 6 all together. Will see...

Thank you for stopping by. It´s so nearly the time to close the door on 2018 and step into 2019. See you! I´m grateful. Thank you!

Amigurumi crochet Angry Birds

Amigurumi Crochet Angry birds:

These first characters of Angry Birds are made for my daughter as a birthday gift! I didn´t want to buy them at the the supermarket and decided to make my own birds:)

About this amigurumi pattern:

Angry birds are very well known characters and there are plenty of amigurumi patterns for free and I thought this time I´m not going to make my own pattern (even though,maybe smaller version as well) but will try to make one with somebody´s else pattern for a change:)

I found one pattern from Adorable Amigurumi. She uses 4,5 crochet hook, but I used 2mm crochet hook.

At firt, as always, I have a feeling that nothing comes out:) and also I didn´t know much about these characters, that´s why my first yellow bird is orange:)

I made some little changes: nose, I made some extra stitches and ears: they are also a bit different.

As to yellow bird, I made feathers in one piece!

Hope You like them too!
