4. INC – increase (2 sc in one stitch);
5. DEC – decrease (2 sc together);
6. CH – chain;

9. HDC2TOG – crochet 2 hdc together
10. * - number of repetitions in the round;
11. (N) – number of stitches in the round
Note!
You do NOT need to make a turning chain at the end of the round,
otherwise you will end up with an unsightly seam! If you are just starting
to crochet, count how many stitches you get in each round. Be careful and
patient, and you will definitely succeed!
A lighter is needed to further strengthen the fittings. I'll tell you about
this during the process.
So, let's start! First, crochet the details for a Teddy Bear without clothes, then
in the pattern below there will be a description for a Teddy Bear in pajamas. The
head, ears, snout and head design are the same! The body is also crocheted in the
same way, but in different colors. The difference is in the description of the legs!
First, there is the description of the head and its details (ears, snout) for two
types of bears, then the legs for a one-color bear (hind legs and forelegs), then the
legs for a bear in pajamas. Then follow the description of the body and assembly.
Head:
Tip: if you don’t know what “MR” is and how to crochet an amigurumi
ring, then just make two chains and the required number of stitches in the
second chain
1. 6 sc in a MR
2. 6 inc (12)
3. (1 sc, inc)*6 (18)
4. (2 sc, inc)*6 (24)
5. (3 sc, inc)*6 (30)
6. (4 sc, inc)*6 (36)
7. 36 sc
8. (5 sc, inc)*6 (42)
9-11. 42 sc
12. 7 sc, (1 sc, inc)*3, 15 sc, (1 sc, inc)*3, 8 sc (48)
13-16. 48
17. 7 sc, (1 sc, dec)*3, 15 sc, (1 sc, dec)*3, 8 sc (42)
18. (5 sc, dec)*6 (36)
Insert safety eyes between rounds 12 and 13. The distance between the
eyes (from the EDGE of the eye, not from the leg) - 6 sc in the middle.
From the third increase in round 12 (right cheek) - 3 sc, and 3 sc to the
first increase (left cheek).
After securing the plug, burn the legs of the eyes with a lighter and
melt them. Then press with the back of the lighter, thereby flattening the
melted tip. This way you will further strengthen the eyes and they will
never fly out of the toy
Cut the yarn and hide the ends. For sewing on, cut a long thread from
the main yarn. Fold in half and sew on the head, BUT after we have
completely decorated it! Stuff the cheeks well by pushing fiberfill with
your fingers from the center of the head to the edges, distributing it over
the decreases and increases.
Ears, make 2:
1. 6 sc in a MR
2. 6 inc (12)
3-4. 12 sc
Snout:
1. 6 sc in a MR
2. 6 inc (12)
3. (1 sc, inc)*6 (18)
4. 18 sc + 2 extra sc + 1 sl st. Leave a long end
for sewing pieces.
After we have sewn all pieces, make a needle sculpting. Insert the
needle into the opening on the head, at point “A”, then exit through point
“B”, then insert at point “C” and exit through point “D”, then into “D” and
again pull the needle out into the hole of the head - “A”. Gently tighten the
snout, tie the thread into a knot and secure it to the back loop. Repeat the
tightening 2 more times.
Then you can shape the snout, use a brown thread to form the muzzle,
tighten it and tie the ends behind the back loop of the round, then use the
same thread to embroider eyebrows. Fix again and hide the ends inside
the head.
Eyes. Take the main yarn, embroider the upper eyelid, then embroider
the whites of the eyes with a white thread.
Crochet the body! First you need to crochet the legs, because... they are
joined into the body. Crochet for a teddy bear without clothes.

The hind legs also close on different sides. One leg closes at the front,
the other at the back. The wrong side of the closure is on the inside.
Tip: take a smaller hook size for edging. I have
3.25 mm hook, I don’t crochet tightly. Then I tuck
the ends inside the leg with the thinnest hook -
2.25 mm. You need to hide the ends before
closing the leg.

Stuff the legs well up to round 10, and quite a bit until round 15. Do not
stuff the top.
We prepared all the pieces except the body and, of course, the cap. If
you crochet a Teddy Bear without clothes, then continue with the same
color, if you crocheted a Teddy Bear in pajamas, then continue
crocheting with the color for the pajamas))) Don’t get confused!
Crochet the body and join the legs in the process. Then sew on the tail,
and then sew the head to the body. The cap can be crocheted later. It
will be more convenient to measure it.
