Meet Gerry the Felted Bear
Gerry is a fantastic beginning project for felting: it’s so easy! You crochet the pieces from a wool yarn, and then toss them in the washing machine, and magic happens! This project is crocheted holding two strands of yarn together and a big hook, so it works up fast. And because this bear is felted, it’s very durable and huggable.
Gerry measures 11″ tall when completed!
