Who among us doesn't love brown bears?! Of course, both adults and children like such toys. Today, toy bear cubs can be bought in any store, however, you can knit the same cute bear cub with your own hands. For this we need: maximum desire and good mood and minimum effort.
So, we will need:
- brown threads;
- white and black threads;
- ordinary threads for sewing together parts of the product;
- 2 beads for eyes;
- glue like “Moment”;
- wire;
- filler;
- second size hook.
Level of preparation for knitting: no higher than elementary.
Toy making time: approximately 3-4 hours.
Step one. Head.
All good things start from the head, our bear is also made from the head. To make it, we crochet two loops and knit them together. Let's start the circle.
Having reached half the volume of the head, fill the toy with filler.
After a few more centimeters of knitting, we close the loops and get a head like this.
Its approximate volume is 5-6 cm.
Step two. Torso.
The body of the toy is knitted as a single piece. Limbs are added later. We start knitting from the bottom, knit a large semicircle and start knitting the walls, decreasing the knitting by the number of loops towards the top. The result is a body that is somewhat reminiscent of a pear.
Step three. Sewing parts.
Now you need to sew the head and torso.
After this we do the ears. They are made from two semicircles.
The ears are then connected to the head, stuffed and carefully sewn on.
Now we make the face of the animal from white threads. We knit a semicircle, stuff it and sew it to the head. We do the same with two white circles, indicating the places where the eyes will be.
Now use glue to attach the eye beads.
Finally, we sew the head and body to each other.
Step four. Upper and lower limbs.
Now our task is to properly make the legs and arms of the bear.
Let's start with the upper legs. First we will insert the wire into the places of the future upper limbs.
Next, we knit two loops, called air loops, and begin circular knitting with a gradual addition of loops. We knit about 6 cm and bind off the loops. We do the same thing a second time, thus making the second hand.
We sew the arms to the body of our bear.
The same procedure is performed for the lower extremities.
First we thread the wire.
Then we make the legs with a thickening at the bottom (in the place of future feet).
You can knit the same teddy bear! Good luck in your creativity!

For the Christmas tree you can use green yarn and its shades or white, blue and light blue. Threads for toys should be of a contrasting color to make them stand out.
Tie the made pompoms to the net.
Now you need to make toys for the Christmas tree. Red threads were used for this. Make pom-poms also using a fork. Bring them to the Christmas tree in the form of toys. This is such a wonderful forest beauty. If you are a craftswoman with small children, play at the same time and help them develop their speech.

To make his hat, sew a cap from red felt, insert a cone made of cardboard inside so that the headdress has a shape.
Glue buttons and beads onto the face to make eyes and a mouth. Make a carrot nose from a piece of toothpick with a little orange yarn wound around it.
Our snowman is neat, give him a broom. To do this, fold the yarn several times to create even turns. Bend them in the center, bend them in this place to fold them in half.
Insert a toothpick here, pre-dyed in the same color as the yarn. To secure this wooden blank with a large amount of glue. Transfer with thread, trim off excess yarn at the bottom. Rewind with glitter ribbon, after which you can attach the bottom of the snowman's arm.

To do this, roll the cut out triangle from cardboard into a cone, gluing the edges. Coat the top of this piece with glue and wind a red thread across it. Glue a small white pom pom onto the top of the cap.
- Also attach the hat itself using ceiling tile adhesive, just like the pompom mittens. Tie Santa Claus with a golden belt. Sew on beads or buttons that will become his facial features.

Bear rug made of pompoms
Pompoms will also help you create one. You know how to make pompoms and... Now we will make one so that it looks like a funny bear.
To make it, take:
- 700 g of fluffy yarn of brown or sand color;
- 50 g pink threads;
- 100 g each of light brown and beige yarn;
- mesh;
- cardboard;
- hook.
The following patterns show in detail how to crochet an ear, upper and lower paw.
To create a head, you need to knit a circle with a diameter of 20 cm from light yarn. For the muzzle we knit a small circle of dark threads and sew it on.
Cut an oval from the mesh and tie pompoms onto it, passing the threads through the cells. Tie their ends on the reverse side, cut off the excess.
If you don’t have a mesh for the base, then take thick fabric: denim, drape or felt. Cut an oval out of it and sew on pom-poms.
How to decorate a hat with a pompom?
Nowadays, hats decorated in this way are very fashionable.
To make a fur pom pom you will need:
- scissors;
- padding polyester;
- ribbon;
- cardboard;
- needle with thread;
- pencil.
Draw a circle on cardboard and cut it out. Attach it to the flesh, outline it, cut it out. Sew along the edge of the fur circle with basting.
Take a piece of padding polyester and tie it in the middle with a ribbon. This is necessary for those who make the pompom removable in order to tie it. If you sew to a hat when the ribbon is not needed. Place the padding polyester inside the circle, connect the thread, and use it to sew up the remaining hole.
To avoid damaging the fur when cutting, use a blade or sharp knife. Then you will only cut the flesh, and the fur will remain intact.
That's it, you can sew or tie a pompom to the hat and put on a beautiful headdress.
If you want to be original, then sew pompoms around the perimeter of the hat. They can be placed in two rows at the front; at the back of the head, sew several in a circle side by side.
If you want to make pompoms in the shape of berries and fruits, then check out how to make them.
For these you should have on hand:
- threads of different colors;
- cardboard;
- scissors;
- hook;
- gypsy needle.
- Let's start with strawberries. Draw a horseshoe on cardboard; you will need two such blanks. Combine these two elements, put a green thread between them.
- Wind the red thread tightly in the middle, and make turns with white on the right and left. We secure the ends of the yarn with a hook, making a couple of turns.
- Then cover the top of the workpiece again with red yarn, then white. Do this layer one more time.
- You have formed the strawberry pulp with white seeds. If you want them to look natural, use black thread.
- Wind the green yarn on the left side to become the tail of the strawberry.
- Using sharp scissors, cut the threads along the top outer part of the horseshoe. Carefully pull the green thread while removing the piece from the cardboard and tie it in a knot.
- Now we need to use scissors to give our berry its characteristic shape.
A berry as large as a watermelon can also be made into pom-poms.
- Between two parts of the same cardboard blank you need to stretch a green thread. Now we wind the bright pink yarn on top in the middle. It will be the pulp of a watermelon. A few turns of black thread will become its seeds.
- To make a green crust, wrap a thread of that color over the top. Make a layer between it and the pulp using white yarn.
- Wrap the bright pink thread again on top. Just like in the first case, pull the green thread. While holding, cut all layers of yarn at the top. Tighten the warp thread, giving the workpiece a round shape. If necessary, cut off excess using scissors.
This is what happens.
Using the same technique you can make a kiwi from threads.
Place brown thread between two skeins. Wind the white one across the top. To create dark stripes, create them using black yarn. Next come light green threads, and brown ones complete the layer. After cutting the threads at the top of the horseshoe, pull the pre-laid thread and tie it. All you have to do is remove the pompom from the workpiece and use scissors to give it the desired shape.
Wind a white thread onto the same blank. Then, on both sides of the center, yellow. Cover it all with white thread and wind yellow in the middle. Next comes a layer of white yarn, onto which you need to wind the yellow one.
All that remains is to cut the coils on top, remove the cardboard template, and use scissors to shape the piece into an orange.
Here are some wonderful thread pompoms you can make with your own hands. If it’s not entirely clear to you how to make it in the shape of a strawberry, then watch the video to complete the picture.
