Cute toy pattern from my friend.

My italian friend Stefania knits, crochets and sews beautiful garments and toys. Recently she started her own blog where she share her projects and free patterns  http://handmadesteffistorch.blogspot.it/
She asked me to translate this easy crochet pattern "Il mio orsetto ROY" in English and was so kind to share it on my blog. 


To make this cute crochet Roy bear you'll need only a couple of hours and any stash yarn.
Materials: knitting yarn, fiberfill for stuffing, crochet hook, scissors, tapestry needle, decorative ribbon, button.
Let's start!!
Rnd 1: 1 ch in a magic ring, 6 sc, join with sl st in the 1st sc. 
Rnd 2: 2 ch, 2 dc in every st (=12 dc), join with the first dc. 
Rnd 3: 2 ch, 2 dc in every st (=24 dc), join with the first dc. 
Rnd 4: 2 ch, 1 dc in every st (=24 dc), join with the first dc.
The belly of the bear is completed.
Now you'll make the paws and the head. 
The paws:
Row 1: 3 ch and 1 dc, 1 dc in next 3 st, 2 ch, turn the work. 
Row 2: 1 half dc in next 3 st, 1 ch, turn 
Row 3: 1 dc in next 3 st, 1 ch, turn
Repeat 3 times, finish with sl st.
Now let's crochet the head of our amiable friend: 
Row 1: 3 ch e 2 dc, 2 dc in every next 2 st, 3 dc in last st (=10 dc). 
Row 2: 3 ch e 1 dc in 1 ch, 1 dc in next 8 ch, 3 dc in last st (=12 dc). 
Row 3 and 4: 3 ch, 11 dc.
Next row - ears: 1 ch, 3 dc in next 2 st, 6 sl st, 3 dc in next 2 st, finish with sl st.
The half of the bear is ready. Now work the other half in the same way, sew 2 parts together, stuff the body, attach the ribbon and button.
Enjoy!
