I just love this Huggable Teddy Toy! I printed the pattern awhile ago and have made about 10 so far. I think every child needs a teddy! The written pattern here on this page (Great!) is easy to follow and can be done in no time. I am making a bunch of these to give out at a baby shower I'm going to. My grandkids all have one and every time I finished one, some one would ask to have it. It's hard to keep these cute little bears. Thank you so much for sharing this free crochet pattern.

Since the entire pattern is presented here and there is no outside link to click this pattern needs a picture of the bear.

Hi Hippie Chick, Thanks for pointing this out - the photo should be appearing now! Julia, AllFreeCrochet editor

I made these bears to go with caps for premature infants. They are easy to do, and I had baggies of "body parts" in different colors to work on.

This Huggable Teddy Bear will make a lovely present to a baby girl. Depending on the age of the little girl, you may want to do it to suit the girl's age. A bigger teddy may be more appropriate for 3, 4, 5-year old girls. This will also look exciting in a different color, maybe royal blue or yellow gold. If I were to do this, however, I would like to make the face a little bit wider as this one has a longish face which is not proportional to teddy's body. Thanks for the free pattern.

Row 11 for the left leg of huggable teddy bear are confusing. I only have 9 SC and don't see how you can have 12sc when you have to SC2tog several times. Radamsjr.

Thank you for the pattern. I tried to send a pic with this post, to show the one I made. I'm not for sure if it went through though. It said that it would have to be reviewed first. Thank you again!

It should be showing now :)

I don't see your pic.

Why is this linked from "Breaking Bad Pattern"?

Hi onecricket, We re-named the pattern in the newsletter because it reminded us of the pink teddy bear from the hit TV show "Breaking Bad." Thanks! -editors of AllFreeCrochet

Thanks, too, for your response JennyBee1.

Thanks for asking the question, onecricket now I know why it was named "Breaking Bad Pattern".

Did this get renamed again? I am just seeing it and it's just called Huggable Teddy Toy from Bernat. There is also no link.
