Product Description
Teddy Bears capture the hearts of people everywhere, but are especially beloved by children. This cable pattern includes a festive sweater & hat for children sizes 2, 4 and 6, plus a matching outfit for a special teddy.
Teddy’s outfit is designed for 16"-18" bears with a 13.5"-17" tummy circumference, a very popular size. Over the years I’ve purchased bears from numerous manufacturers, as well as thrift stores and yard sales.
I first designed this set years ago as a holiday gift for a child. The original cable sweater was knit in a fir-tree green yarn & decorated with little red bobble balls. But this outfit is adorable in any color - I especially love making the bobbles "pop" with a contrasting yarn. The sweater can be a crewneck or turtleneck. The hat can have a single or fold-up brim. The detailed pattern includes separate written instructions & charts for each size.
I’ve knit the samples in readily available Red Heart Super Saver, but any worsted yarn with a similar gauge can be used.
Teddy & Me! "Snowballs" Knitted Sweater Pattern
What Is Being Made
The "Snowballs" pattern is a knitted sweater designed as part of the Teddy & Me! collection by designer MaryAnn C. Davis. This collection celebrates the tradition of creating personalized wardrobes for teddy bears, transforming beloved plush companions into fully dressed characters. The sweater is suitable for dressing standard teddy bears and represents a charming way to extend creative gift-giving beyond traditional bear ownership.
Craft & Techniques
This is a knitting project that employs intermediate-level techniques. Knitters will work through various shaping methods typical of fitted garment construction, including increases and decreases to achieve proper sweater proportions. The pattern guides crafters through the foundational knitting skills required to transform flat fabric into a three-dimensional wearable piece designed specifically for teddy bear sizing.
Stitches & Construction
While specific stitch abbreviations are referenced in the pattern materials, the sweater construction follows standard knitted garment methodology. The pattern includes detailed instructions for sweater measurements and gauge information to ensure proper fit on a teddy bear. Knitters will work through sections of the garment systematically, with attention to shaping and finishing details that define a polished, professionally-made bear sweater.
Materials Required
- Yarn Weight: Aran or worsted weight yarn, providing medium thickness ideal for small-scale garment construction
- Tools: Knitting needles appropriate to the selected yarn weight
- Notions: Additional materials listed in the pattern's "You Will Need" section
Difficulty Level & Suitability
Rated as intermediate difficulty, this pattern is designed for knitters with foundational skills who are ready to tackle garment construction. The "Snowballs" sweater represents an excellent project for crafters seeking to expand beyond simple flat projects into fitted, three-dimensional pieces while working at a manageable scale.
