Amigurumi Polar Bear


I had my first experience with creating my own amigurumi pattern over this past week and it was a blast!  I had a special order for a polar bear, but I couldn't find a pattern that was suitable, so I decided to figure one out on my own!
I was nervous about creating something off-the-cuff, but once I found a source for a classic polar bear stance and started shaping I found it rather natural.  I love when I can completely focus on a project like this.  It's a kind of meditation for me.
This guy will be on his way to his new home soon. Fear not, I carefully recorded all my moves, so I WILL be able to make more!
I think he turned out pretty jaunty, don't you?
