Knitting for Teddies
Here are 35 winning designs to knit for your favorite teddy—with some of the patterns specially adapted to fit an infant of three–to–six months. Among the charming themed projects are “Going Skiing” (a teddy sweater, hat, scarf, and shoes); “At the Seashore” (a playsuit for teddy and a nautical sweater for baby); and “Bed Time” (a big teddy bed jacket and a little teddy sleeper). Each pattern includes a detailed list of materials, needles, and accessories required, and instructions are accompanied by line diagrams of all the pattern pieces as well as color charts of the motifs. Whether you want to outfit your teddy to support a local team or dress him up Aran–style, you’re sure to find an appealing, easy–to–knit pattern.
