This ultra-easy tutorial comes together smoothly by working two tiny leg foundations and joining them in the round to shape the plump torso and head as one continuous piece. By working the dimensional bobble arms directly into the body rounds, this pattern virtually eliminates tedious limb assembly, allowing you to mass-produce multiple matching pairs in a single afternoon.

Step-by-Step Long-Form Crochet Pattern

Note on Construction: The bear is worked using joined rounds. At the end of every round, join with a slip stitch into the first single crochet of that round, then make a chain 1 before beginning the next round. The initial chain 1 does not count as a stitch.

Step 1: Making the Legs

  1. Round 1: Create a magic ring. Work 1 chain stitch (turning chain). Work 6 single crochets into the ring. Pull the yarn tail tight to close the central opening. Slip stitch into the very first single crochet to join the round. (6 sts)

  2. Round 2: Chain 1. Work 1 single crochet in the same first stitch where you just slip stitched. In the next stitch, work 1 increase (2 sc in the same stitch). Repeat this sequence: 3 times in total. Slip stitch into the first single crochet to join. (9 sts)

  3. Fasten off Leg 1 by cutting the yarn, leaving a short tail. Pull the loop through.

  1. Round 1: Create a magic ring. Chain 1. Work 6 single crochets into the ring. Pull the tail tight. Join with a slip stitch into the first single crochet. (6 sts)

  2. Round 2: Chain 1. Work 3 times around. Slip stitch into the first single crochet to join. (9 sts)

  3. Do not cut the yarn on Leg 2.
