The bear is simple to make using garter stitch, which is just a knit stitch every row, so it is perfect for beginners and advanced knitters. <br> The outfits are the cutest. I especially loved Waitress Bear, but also included are patterns for, Soccer Bear, an Astronaut, a Biker, a Nurse and so many more. <br> The patterns are easy to follow and each row is numbered. There is help for tension and abbreviations and simple instructions to put your pieces together.<br> I loved the dedication in this book and if you are a Teddy Bear lover then you really will enjoy knitting the projects. The bear is not very big, about 8 inches tall, so perfect for a quick gift project. It is also ideal for using the oddments you have in your stash. <br> The bear has a lot of character, and whether you make one or lots, you are sure to have a lot fun too.<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Val Pierce's passion for knitting began when her father taught her to knit at the age of five.
