Crochet Pattern - Sleepy Teddy Bear in Pajamas

This teddy is ready for bed, in his pajamas, night hat and bunny slippers. 4-way jointed with moving arms and legs. Hat and clothes are sewn to the body, slippers are removable.

I've designed this pattern with beginner toy makers in mind and included detailed instructions, lots of step-by-step photos, and sprinkled in tips and tricks to guide you through every stitch and turn. It's like having a personal crochet coach right by your side, cheering you on as you bring your teddy bear to life.
