Aran Bears

I like to make Aran sweaters for bears that I buy at the Goodwill. I give them to adults who need a little tlc. The ones I have given away so far seem to be appreciated. They are resting on the (quiltville.com) Carolina Crossroads quilt, which has now been quilted, btw. For some reason, the bear with the blue sweater looks like he is missing an eye......not the case, it's just hidden by fur! My daughter's camera-shy kitty was in the photo, but decided not to participate!

I love cable knitting too - those little bears in their jumpers are so cute!

What a lovely idea. Nobody is ever too old for a teddy bear.
