Jellycat Bear Sweater Knitting Pattern PDF

£1.50

Designed to fit the Medium Bartholomew Bear by Jellycat (approximately 26 cm × 12 cm × 8 cm).

The fit is intentionally relaxed and slightly oversized for a cosy, comfortable look

This cosy little chunky raglan was designed for Bartholomew Bear and knits up quickly in chunky yarn. With its relaxed fit, rolled edges and simple construction, it’s perfect for stash-busting, gifting, or simply making sure your bear is dressed appropriately for woodland adventures, afternoon naps and important tea-drinking duties.

Materials

Approximately 40g Chunky Yarn

The colourful yarn pictured is Knit Folk Chunky Merino

The green is Cascade 220 Heathers range - Smoke Heather - HELD DOUBLE to achieve chunky weight.

6 mm knitting needles.

Yarn needle for sewing seams and weaving in ends

Gauge - 3 stitches and 5 rows = 1 inch in stocking stitch

Construction Notes

This sweater is worked flat in four pieces: one front, one back, and two sleeves.

The front, back and sleeves are shaped with simple raglan decreases to create a comfortable fit around the shoulders.

The pieces are sewn together along the raglan seams, with one raglan seam left open while the neckline is worked.

Stitches are then picked up around the neckline and a short rolled neckband is worked flat before the final raglan seam is sewn.

This creates a neat, stretchy finish that fits comfortably over Bartholomew Bear’s head. The fit is intentionally forgiving and designed to suit the soft, rounded shape of Bartholomew Bear.

A slightly oversized fit adds to the cosy look, so there is no need to worry about achieving exact measurements.
