Crochet Bear Pattern (Free Charts)

A calm, round bear face in 24 stitches — the teddy blanket without the sewing.

A bear is the safest gift in crochet: every nursery theme has room for one. This face is deliberately simple — round head, small ears, cream muzzle — so it reads clearly even at 24 × 14 stitches, and so a beginner can finish it without a single tricky color change.

Two colorways: honey brown for the classic teddy look, and a deeper mocha for a woodland feel. Same chart, four colors, one evening each.

How to crochet it

  1. Pick a brown and a 5 mm hook

    About 20 yards total in worsted weight. A 5.0 mm (H/8) hook gives a panel of roughly 17 × 10 cm — stash-buster territory.

  2. Work 14 rows bottom-up

    One cell = one single crochet. The muzzle is the only color detail inside the face — a small cream patch with a dark nose, easy to count.

  3. Build the nursery set

    Pair the bear with the bunny and heart charts for a matching set of blanket squares, or repeat bears in alternating colorways for a full teddy blanket.

Frequently asked questions

Is this bear pattern good for beginners?

Yes — 24 × 14 stitches, four colors, and broad shapes with no confetti stitches. It's a calm first colorwork project, finishable in one evening.

Can I use this bear chart for C2C?

Yes — each cell becomes one C2C block worked diagonally. In worsted yarn the bear comes out around 30 × 18 cm, perfect for a baby blanket square.

Can I make a panda with this chart?

Almost — swap the main brown for black and keep the muzzle cream. The face reads as a panda cousin; for crisp panda eye patches you'd want a dedicated chart, which the generator can make from a panda photo.

Is the bear pattern free?

Yes, free for personal use in both colorways. It's an original design made for this site.

What can I make with a 24-stitch bear?

Baby blanket squares, cardigan patches, tote appliqués, wall hangings, or one block in a larger animal alphabet blanket. Repeat it in a grid and it becomes the whole blanket.
