Your blog is SOO wonderful! I'm so glad I found it! I'm going to have to go through and find tons of patterns to make this weekend! My phone needs a ton of cute charms and my work bag needs some additions to it!
ReplyDeleteThanks a ton for posting these!
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.
ReplyDeleteAnd 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/
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great book.
Thank you so much for all the adorable patterns. I have had a lot of fun making them and sharing your blog.

I can't wait to see the book! :)
i will try to make this darling little guy...then if i make it through, i will for sure buy your darling book!
ReplyDeleteHola, 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.
ReplyDeleteViendo 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.
Hi there,
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the cute bear pattern. I translated into chinese and posted on my blog. I did posted the original link and told ppl no commerial use of this. hope you don't mind :)
I just finished the teddy!! :-D It's just adorable! I'm off to post a pic on the flickr group and on my blog :-D
ReplyDeleteI gave it to my mom and now my brother wants one and I have to make another for my grandmother!
I think I did quite well in my first amigurumi... :-D
Dear Ana Paula,
ReplyDeleteFirst 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.....
ReplyDeleteWhat should I do?
Hi
ReplyDeleteI 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 :)

Dear Ana,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the pattern. I like it a lot.
Please allow me to create link to your blog in mine.
Aww! How cute! I really love the AMIGURUMI WORLD book, and am so thankful for the free pattern! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat pattern! Thank you for posting it. I finished it for a friends baby and she loved it. I've posted a picture on my blog...
ReplyDeletehttp://theadventurethatisella.blogspot.com/2008/10/whew-mamas-tired.html
It´s lovely! Thanks for the pattern.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the pattern.. I really enjoyed doing it.. It's my first amigurumi.. now I'm hooked.. :)
ReplyDeleteHey 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!
ReplyDeleteIt 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 :)
ReplyDeletethat 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?
ReplyDeleteCan you help me?This is regarding the bear and pot of honey pattern.Can you please explain how to do the pot part?I tried 2day and my pot looks differnt than the picture Can you explain this??????

ReplyDeleteSo cute! I'm making this along with some other little animals for a birthday present and it's perfect!
ReplyDeleteI made matching teddy bears for my boyfriend and I. His is brown, mine dark purple (those are the colors I had). This is my first attempt at follwing any kind of pattern and I must say it was very simple and easy! It also kept me occupied when I was snowed in for 3 days. :) Thank you so much for sharing and I will post the pictures as soon as I get some felt and little eyes!
ReplyDeleteI own your book and I stalk your patterns like a mad woman! I love your work, too too cute. I make these and then me and my kis bring them to the Childrens Hospital, the kids absolutely LOVE them. I don't use eye's on anything but I stitch them on by hand and the nurses say that they hold up really well. Great patterns, great work and hey you are bringing lots of smiles to kids faces everywhere. From Wisconsin ~ Tara Street streettara@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteCan anyone let me know what size safety eyes were used for this little guy? I want to make sure I get the right size because he is SO CUTE! Thanks.. Glorygirl88@aol.com
ReplyDeleteI dont know if this has been mentioned, but you left off the part where you tell us to put the eyes and nose on, I almost forgot! Thanks for the pattern!
ReplyDeletei have trouble on rd:17 on the head because i dont get what it means by decrease *1
ReplyDeleteHello!
ReplyDeleteI've translated this pattern and posted it on my blog. I also linked to your blog!
I hope that's ok ^_^

Thank you for this free pattern. I recently learnt to crochet and saw your adorable creations, so thought I would have a go of the little bear before deciding if I'd buy your (first) book.
ReplyDeleteIt came out fairly well. I didn't do the honey pot and my bear is rainbow coloured. It brings a smile to my face each time I look at it. I had a little trouble with the legs and arms(a bit too thin for my skill level), so did thicker ones from the bunny pattern. I was stoked with how it turned out, so ordered the book today from amazon. Thank you again for sharing your patterns. They are so adorable.
Hello Ana Paula,
ReplyDeleteI made a slightly alternative version of your bear as my first try on crochet. It turned out really well, so thanks for the pattern :)
