Beau the Pumpkin Bear

 
 

 
Beau really likes Kit the pumpkin cat costume so he got one too!
I used a 3 mm hook, stuffing, tapestry needle, 10 mm safety eyes and Dk yarn in brown, orange, green and a little bit of pink and black.

The doll is going to measure 12 cm / 4,7 inches tall.

We can now make the pumpkin face or you could leave it until the ends if that is more comfortable to you. I made it now before putting on the bear's head.
So, for the pumpkin face grab a long piece of yarn and we'll have to embroider two triangles for the eyes, I made them between R9-11 and a zigzag mouth. You can do this differently if you want, make it a bit higher up the body or try some other jack o' lantern face.

Sew the head to the body.
