Leaving the yarn attached on 2nd leg at side, now crochet around top edge of both legs and into center between the legs. Use the tail for the first completed leg to join at center. Once both legs pieces are completed, I join them together as shown.
I have found this is just right so my completed bear is between 11 and 12 inches tall. For thinner yarn such as Aran, I do the complete more rows so the leg piece is still about 3-3/4 to 4 inches long. This was crocheted using Red Heart yarn which is thicker than some yarn so I only did 15 rows compared to the official MBP pattern. This leg piece measures about 3-3/4 inches long with a total of 15 rows. I do not join, turn, or chain 1 to start a new row. Here is a leg piece to share, I end at the side of the leg and simply join a new color with a SC (single crochet) stitch and work in the round. This varies from the original pattern but depending on your yarn, design, and other factors, crochet as needed to obtain the size and design you desire. This particular leg has just 4 rows in the bear body color and then 11 rows for the pants up to the point where you join the legs together to work the rest of the pants. So as I have stated, I wanted to crochet my bear in the round without joining or working chain 1s for each row. Go to the official Mother Bear Site by clicking on the logo below. So after getting the seamless crochet bear pattern, I set out to figure out a way to do just that. I love to crochet in the round without having to turn or join. I want to share with you all the helpful ideas and pattern tips that we want to pass along.
After participating in a CAL for the bears, several of us found some valuable tips to help in crocheting the seamless bears. I purchased the seamless crochet pattern from the MBP site.
This is post to help those using the seamless crochet pattern for the Mother Bear Project.
