Important Shipping Information: The Halloween Bear Kits will begin shipping on September 20th, 2024.
The Halloween Bear originated as a pattern called Bear in a Bunny suit which appeared in a collaboration book many years ago. Later the pattern returned to me and became my Bear and a Bunny Suit pattern. From there I added Halloween Bear and Holiday Bear options as free pattern modifications on the Barrett Wool Co. Journal (still available on the Journal) but those are always clunky because you have to go back and forth between sources.
I continue to love this pattern, so this fall I decided to rewrite the Halloween Bear pattern in one place and in an easier format, including a few construction improvements and yarn and gauge changes. I also added a lot of new photo and video tutorials to the pattern to help you along the way.
Here it is, the Halloween Bear with a bonus little pumpkin pattern thrown in at the end. I hope you enjoy this sweet little bear dressed up in his black cat costume with a hood that can be pulled on and off. I loved reworking the toy and the pattern and I hope you have fun when knitting your own Halloween Bear.
