This book will introduce you to the art of miniature crocheted Teddy Bears from thread. This is a relatively new trend in bear making. These are miniature crocheted and fully jointed teddy bears made with lots of tiny crochet stitches using a variety of threads or thin yarns. Some of them show off the crochet stitches and the ones made from mohair or acrylic yarn can be brushed for a wonderful fuzzy look. These bears are not toys, they are wonderful woks of art for teddy bears collectors. I have included in this book six patterns. They are my own creations. The first two are very easy: the bears have straight arms and legs. The next two have bent arms, and the last two are a little more complicated. Each of these patterns will add to your knowledge and enjoyment of the art of thread teddy bears. The instructions are easy to follow, each pattern has a diagram to assemble the bear and color photographs of the finished bear.

Be aware that crochet terms in the United States are different from those in the U.K. This can be confusing as the same terms are used to refer to different stitches under each system. All crochet patterns in this book are written in U.K. and European terms. U.S. crocheters must take care that they work the correct stitches. One way to tell which system is being used in other patterns is that the American system starts with a single crochet, which the U.K. system doesn't have; so patterns with “sc” in them can be identified as American patterns.

Suitable for complete beginners to crochet, perfect for using up small pieces of yarn, patterns can easily be scaled up by using larger hooks and thicker yarn.
