So cute. It's hard to believe that she is crocheted. Amazing.

What a sweet little bear, I just love the curly look of her "fur" and I always admire you tatted collars, tatting is on my list to learn some day, it is a beautiful craft.

Thanks, Millie and Joanne. You have started my day off grand. Tania's fur is crocheted with Redheart Plush yarn. Plush has 4 plies; I separate the plies and crochet with one, two, three or all four. The number of plies and size of crochet hook determine the size of the bear. And Joanne....if you want to tat, go for it. I will be glad to help if I can. Hugs, Jan
