What will be not only a great gift, but also an interior decoration? Of course, a soft bear made by hand. Therefore, we present you a detailed workshop on the manufacture of a bear from fleece. Of course, you can sew a bear not only from fleece, but it is this material that is the most soft and pleasant both in work and in future use.
To begin with, you need to prepare all the materials we need, namely:

  • Sintepon (we will stuff the toy very tightly, so the more material you prepare, the better);
  • Scissors;
  • Pencil;
  • Fleece;
  • Tape;
  • Eyes with fastening (you can buy glass, they are sold in almost any sewing store);
  • Needle and thread (it is not necessary to select a thread according to the color of the fabric);


Let's try to crochet a skirt for our bear, for this we need:

Yarn (best for the color of the tape);
Hook (it is best to match the thickness of the yarn, but the hook of 2.50 or 3.00 mm fits almost any thickness of the yarn).

the materials we need


After all the necessary tools and materials have been prepared, you can begin to work.
To begin with, you need to cut two identical details from the fleece, resembling the silhouettes of our bear.

cut out fleece


Now, we put the thread in the needle (do not use a thread that is too long, most often it gets tangled). We take parts from the fabric and put them on top of each other. And only now we sew them together, not forgetting to occasionally turn the bodies inside out and check whether it turns out symmetrically.

stack them on top of each other


After our details are completely sewn to each other, we make a hole in the place of the neck of our bear - to this place a little later we sew a bow and turn the body inside out. We make holes for the eyes, in case you bought eyes with fasteners, draw a curve in your mouth with a pencil and turn the body over to the other side (with which we worked before), sew mouths with stitches. The result should be something like this:

make a hole in the neck


Again, turn the body inside out and stuff it with syntepon.

Next, insert the eyes and sew a hole.

Now we tie a bow on the neck of the bear, which just closes the seam. The ribbon will constantly fly, so the best option is to sew it to the neck of the bear.

Bear is ready, not enough skirts. As already mentioned, we will crochet a skirt. Therefore, we take yarn and a hook (I have 2.50) and make air loops. For those who first encountered crocheting, it’s worth explaining how to work with a crochet and make loops. The hook must be held with a working hand like a pen. The first loop is a knot that is quite easy to make with a hook, the main thing is to train. And making air loops is even easier - you need to hook the thread that we hold in our left hand and stretch it through the previous loop. This is how air loops are created. For a skirt, we need to make at least 20 air loops, their number depends on the size of your bear.
This is what air loops should look like:

We attach the tied to the bear and see that the loop is enough.

We apply the bound


Having collected the required number of loops we connect the last loop with the first and get a circle - this is the basis of our skirt.

Now make the bars. If you want to make a more fluffy skirt, then make crochet columns, while in every third air loop, thread 2-3 columns.

more fluffy skirt


In the end, you should get such a skirt. If you want a brighter skirt, you can change the yarn.

A bear with a skirt seems much brighter, especially when the ribbon comes in color with it.
