Format:Paperback
All the bears are various sizes, so the clothes only fit that one bear and there is only one item of clothing per bear. A lot of the bears have hinged joints, but an intermediate knitter could perhaps adapt the pattern to avoid this. One pattern for an inexperienced knitter, and the rest seem to be for intermediate or above.

Great book ,patterns given in good detail. nice variety of various size bears using different thickness yarns .I would also use my own discretion if I wanted a larger bear.
i t wou;ld have been handy to know what ply wool was used but an experienced knitter would manage ok anyway.

Fantastic book, some really easy to follow patterns with some beautiful results. I found changing the different coloured and textured wool makes a further difference. Rowan Alpaca Cotton using 4.5mm makes a lovely bear.
