ABOUT THE PATTERN:

Pattern is written over 14 pages and contains very detailed written description supported by a lots of notes and photos. I also included links to few amazing photo tutorial on how to completely prevent gaps in Amigurumi, how to embroider eyes and joggless colour changes method (you can find those tutorials on my blog www.crochetarcade.co.uk). I’ve also added a special technique to this pattern to show you were exactly to embroider on the facial features.
I’ve also included photo instruction to show how to fold the blanket to turn it into a plush Teddy Bear Toy. This can be easily printed out and enclosed with the blanket if you are gifting it to someone.

ABOUT THE BLANKET:

The idea for this Cover and Play Teddy Bear Blanket came to me even before my best selling Cuddle and Play Sheep Amiblanket (Amigurumi and blanket in one). Half-done WIP was shelved in favour of the sheep but I’m glad I can finally share it with your all.
The concept of this blanket is also to turn the blanket into a toy but in a completely different angle. You have the separate blanket, (mine is plain but you can use any pattern you like for the insert blanket) and a separate blanket cover. Once the blanket is in use, the empty cover can still be used by a child to cuddle (or you can even use it to store some spare baby clothes when out and about). When the blanket in not used it can be put inside the cover to keep it clean when travelling and used to play on those weekends away and holidays. What a great space saving by having this 2 in 1 blanket and toy. At home it will look lovely just sitting on a shelf in a baby nursery.
