Teddybear photo props set. The first one.

I designed this set almost year ago, at the beginnig of my Krampolinka crochet “career” and I shared this free pattern with you on my FB page. Since this website is growing a little bit I decided to transfer it here so it is more convenient and mainly you can find all my free patterns in one place.

DC – double crochet

Each row starts with either 1 CH = Single Crochet or 2 CH = Double Crochet and ends with SlSt. With the use of markers you can crochet around (hat) without using SlSt.
