He's two tone because I ran out of the first, blue yarn. I think it still turned out well though. The eyes weren't crossed when I first embroidered them. That happened when I did the soft sculpting....it pulled the eyes down and inward. He looks like he needs a little bee on his nose or something.

Sample Bear
Another little bear made from leftover scraps of handspun wool using the pattern in the Spring 1995 issue of "Spin Off".

I didn't think the black pupils would show up on the dark colored wool with out that addition.

Maybe his eyes got crossed when you poked them with the needle...hee, hee. Hope your sense of humor is working today = ). He's a cute little fellow!
the bear is adorable. i like how you used the two colors of yarn to complete the project.
