![]() Knitted, Felted, Jointed Teddy Bear BBE-01 |
The first critter in the line of Bear Brain knitted designs is a bear with personality and definition who just happened to be knitted. He (or she) is knitted with Kid-n-ewe worsted weight yarn and will be 10-12 inches tall after felting. The damp felt allows you to mold the paws and face into a variety of poses and expressions. Finishing touches of soft sculpting and embroidery give our bear his true personality. |

This knitted, felted, jointed bunny has personality plus with his long floppy ears and big oversized feet. He is knitted with Kid-n-ewe worsted weight yarn, which felts extremely well. After felting, the bunny will be 10-12 inches tall, not counting his ears. Knitting and felting are easy and fun to do. The flexibility of the damp felt enables you to mold your rabbit into a variety of positions. He has a big pom pom for a tail and an embroidered nose and mouth. What a cutie! |

A bit of soft sculpting and embroidery add to Whidbey’s charm. |

![]() Catnip Dreams - Knitted, Felted Kitty Toys BBE-07 |
For those of us who are cat lovers, this is a great way to use up odds and ends of wool yarn. These toys are quick and easy to knit. This pattern contains five knitted, felted cat toys: a mouse, a large ball, a small ball, a "squiggle" and a fish. Put the finished toys in a nylon stocking, then into a bag full of catnip and leave them to "charge up" overnight. This works GREAT and all our fuzzy friends go "bonkers" over them! |

![]() Beezley Bear and Sweater BBE-08 |
Beezley is a chubby fellow that is knitted and felted. Mini Beezley measures 6" and large Beezley measures 8" after felting and assembling. His cardigan sweater is knitted in one piece from the top down. You can also just knit Beezley if you are not keen on felting. We recommend using a fingering weight yarn for mini Beezley and a worsted weight yarn for the larger bear. If you'd like to be adventurous and try a textured yarn, Berroco Chinchilla or Katia Harmony are among the yarns that we have test knitted for Beezley. |

When finished, they will measure about 15” tall. The sweaters are knitted in one piece from the neck down. The star version features garter ridges, diagonal seed stitch, and a duplicate stitch star. The striped version has rolled cuffs and hem. You can use worsted weight yarns in both wool or acrylic. |

This pattern is an easy to knit long-sleeved sweater. The sweater has been knitted out of Kid-n-ewe worsted weight yarn. It can be knit in a solid color, or follow the enclosed graph to knit in an intarsia teddy bear face. We especially enjoy this sweater as it is knit from the top down, in one piece. |

You will find this is a “beary” quick and easy pattern to knit. The hat and scarf were knitted using Kid-n-ewe worsted weight yarn. The hat has holes knitted into it to allow for the critters ears to poke through. We added in a matching color mohair yarn when knitting the hat brim to add a more “fuzzy” appeal. |

Yet another easy clothing pattern to knit for your favorite critter. This 2- button vest was knitted using Froehlich Die tolle Wolle, a variegated worsted weight yarn.
