Amigurumi Bear & Pot of Honey


-I don't know what I was thinking when I talked about posting the pancake pattern, that one's still in the shop! :p I hope you like this little bear instead :)
I'm posting again tomorrow about the girl that makes the most beautiful wallets in the planet, the book giveaway, a little typo and a little better Pablito the Penguin's arms'explanation.
Talk to you tomorrow!

For this little bear you'll need worsted weight yarn, fiberfill, a tiny little piece of felt & an F/5 hook :)

Thanks again for your inspiration and lovely little friends. I just had to make one of these little bear with his honey pot. He will be a birthday present for Liam 4.
And I'm now so excited to see the postman in a few days as I ordered your book and longing...

I got your book in the mail last week and my 9 year old daughter is in love, so am I. Today while she was nursing the flu she made an owl. I put it up on flickr, if you would like to take a look. http://www.flickr.com/photos/hellovader/2322944348/
Thanks for the great book.

Hola, me encantó tu blog y amé tus trabajos. Me hubiera gustado que se vendiera tu libro en mi país =(. Por eso mismo estoy muy agradecida de tus patrones.
Viendo las cosas que haces me animé a intentar hacer este osito tan tierno, pero al parecer tengo problemas con el tamaño del crochet. Qué significa F5? Es una medida especial?
Fui a una tienda especializada en este asunto, pero parece que la chica que me atnedió no sabía mucho.. Al final terminé comprando un gancho de 5 mm. Es ese el tamaño correcto?
De nuevo, muchas gracias por hacer las maravillas que haces.

Dear Ana Paula,
First I'd like to say that you are very talented. I'm attempting my first ami and I have a question regarding R22 in the Bear and Honey pattern. I don't understand what it means by *sk 1 st, sc 1. what does "sk" mean? I don't understand how to get from R21's 12 stitches to R22 6 stitches.
I've tried to do 1 sc, and 1 dec, but I end up with 9 stitches.
Sorry for being such a beginner.

I don't understand I am a beginner and don't know much about crochet but i am going to buy a book about it.....

What should I do?

G said...

Hi
I am a new beginner and I am going to buy the book.... I think that amirugumi looks really fun and once I learn how I am going to come here and make a teddy :)

Hey I have a question. I pretty much did fine until i hit R7-16. does this mean i have to do 324 stitches in all until i get to do R17? or do i just do 36 sc? Please help me out i would be very happy if you did! Your amigurumis are so cute!

anapaulaoli said...

It means you have to do 36 sc in R7, 36 sc in R8, 36 sc in R9... 36 sc in R15, 36 sc in R16 :)
that means 360 simple crochet stitches in total.
hope that makes sense! (let me know)

I just found this free pattern and it says "R4- Through back loops only: *Sc 1, dec 1*, repeat 6 times (12 sts)" I thought I did it right but it turned out weird-looking. Could you explain to me where the back loops are?
