Knitted Teddy Bears

These cuties were completed a few weeks ago, but were never posted to my blog. The pattern came from Jean Greenhowe's Jemima-Jane and Friends. They are fiddly to put together but not hard, but the embroidery of the faces was difficult at first. I used Vanna's Choice yarn which worked out well. Instead of buttons or safety eyes, I made very interesting french knot yarn eyes, following her directions, and they are wonderful.
