Knitting Pattern: Bera Bear (English)!
Meet Bera Bear, a cozy and charming teddy bear designed to be treasured for years to come. This pattern is knit mainly in the round using 5mm needles with 100% wool, or 4mm needles for a slightly smaller version. The bear is made from simple shapes—head, body, arms, legs, ears, and tail—all brought to life with safety eyes and a safety nose for a sweet, polished look.
For a truly timeless touch, you can also felt your Bera Bear. Just be sure to use non-superwash, untreated wool for the best felting results. The felted version becomes a beautiful heirloom piece—gentle to the touch, durable, and rich with handmade character.
