Description
Crochet 20 little bears and dress them up in a wonderful range of colourful outfits that will delight both adults and children alike. All the bears in the book are based on the same, simple crocheted bear, approximately 12cm (4 in) tall, instructions for which are provided at the beginning of the book. The bears have a firm texture and are made in a stable, seated position. There are 20 unique bears to choose from, each with its own crocheted outfit, and of course all of the characters can be adapted by simply changing the colours used or by 'mixing and matching' the various items iof clothing and accessories. Build up a collection of your own handmade bears, or create gorgeous, personalised gifts for your friends and family to suit any occasion.

May 2015SQUUUUUEEEEE!!!! I love to crochet and I love the Twenty to Make range. This is a super exciting addition to this fantastic series of books! The whole idea of this book is you get the pattern for the bear and then you are given different additions to make a beautiful designed bear. I love the fact that each of the bears is so unique whilst using the same template. The patterns are in written terms and you get details of how to put the pieces together to make each design. They make fantastic gifts or just to make for yourself. I've actually hidden the book from my son so I can
make him one as a surprise for his birthday. I love the bride and groom set for weddings. The book is fantastic value for money. The patterns are really easy to follow and they are all just so cute! * Crochet Addict UK *
