Assembly

1. Facial Details: Use black yarn to embroider a small nose and a “Y” shaped mouth onto the center of the white muzzle piece.
2. Muzzle Placement: Position the muzzle on the head between R10 and R14. Pin in place and sew around the edge, adding a small amount of stuffing behind it before closing the last few stitches.
3. Eyes: Install safety eyes or sew black beads directly above the muzzle, approximately 2–3 stitches apart.
4. Ears: Flatten the ears and sew them to the top of the head between R3 and R7.
5. Arms: Position the arms on the sides of the body at R17 (the neck area). Sew them securely.
6. Legs: Position the legs at the bottom front of the body (R20–R24) so the bear is in a sitting position. Sew them to the body.
7. Finishing: Tie a small fabric bow around the bear’s neck. Secure it with a few stitches or a drop of glue. Hide all remaining yarn tails inside the body.

Detailed Assembly Instructions

• Body & Head Preparation: Ensure the head and body are stuffed firmly and the final opening is sewn shut using a tapestry needle. Hide all yarn tails inside the body.
• Arm Attachment:
  • Locate the 3rd row down from the top center of the head.
  • Position the arms on either side of the body at this level.
  • Use a tapestry needle to sew the open end of the arm to the body, stitching from front to back and back to front through the body stitches to secure.

• Snout (Muzzle) Assembly:
  • Prepare the white snout piece. If using a safety nose, insert it into the white piece before attaching it to the face.
  • If embroidering, use black yarn to create a small inverted triangle for the nose and a small “Y” shape for the mouth on the white piece.
  • Apply a small amount of glue or use pins to center the snout on the face, positioned between the arms’ horizontal level.
  • Sew the perimeter of the snout to the face using the white yarn tail and a tapestry needle. Before closing the last few stitches, add a tiny bit of stuffing inside the snout for a 3D effect.
• Eye Placement:
  • Position the eyes just above the snout.
  • If using beads or embroidery, sew them into the head, pulling the yarn slightly tight to create a small indentation for a cuter look.
• Ear Attachment:
  • Fold the ears slightly to give them a curved shape.
  • Position them on the top of the head, aligned with the sides of the face.
  • Sew them securely to the head using the yarn tails.

Save It

• Leg Attachment:
  • Position the legs at the bottom of the body so the bear is in a “sitting” position.
  • Pin them in place to ensure symmetry.
  • Sew the legs to the lower body, ensuring the stitches are strong enough to support the bear’s weight while sitting.
• Final Decoration (The Bow):
  • Take a small rectangular piece of fabric and pinch the center to create a bow shape.
  • Secure the center with thread or a small strip of fabric.
  • Sew or glue the bow to the bear’s neck or near one ear.
