A toy can be made of different

types of yarn. I crocheted it with
three different types of yarn:
YarnArt Dolce (120 m/100 gr),
YarnArt Velour (170 m/100 gr)
and Alize Cotton Gold (330 m/100
gr).

THREAD MOUNT OF PAWS:

(watch the video)

* I use both semi-cotton and

synthetic thread for the thread
mount to make it stronger

*to make the mounting easier I use

long needles

for personal use only @olya.usolya

 23
- try on the paws, choose the appropriate position;

- insert a long needle through the body in

the place of mounting the 1st paw and
withdraw it in the place of mounting the 2nd
paw;

- put the paw on the needle taking only the front part
of the fabric (not through the whole paw), 2-3 SC and
the fiber filling;

for personal use only @olya.usolya

 24
- turn back through the
same hole to the initial
ending and put the 2nd
paw on the needle;

- stretch the paws very well and tie the thread endings, hide them in the body
through the same (initial) hole, so a knot can hide inside;

- if a knot doesn’t hide, it means that you hid

the endings not in the same hole; re-do the
mounting.

for personal use only @olya.usolya

 25
- sit the bear down and try on the
bottom paws;
- do a thread mount as it is
described above.
