Teddy bears are a childhood staple for most people. They evoke sweet memories of innocence and nostalgia of yesteryears. If you have never knitted a cuddly teddy bear, the project can range from beginner to expert, depending on the pattern. Knitted teddy bears make thoughtful gifts. They are also a welcomed donation at many children's organizations. The Mother Bear Project and Valerie's House are two such organizations. We have gathered some of our favorite free teddy bear knitting projects below.
Each piece of this bear is knit separately and flat. Once all pieces are knitted, they are seamed together and the head and limbs are connected. The end result is a traditional teddy bear with an adorable face that sits up by itself. Find the free pattern here.
