Bought the pattern and the yarn for this project a couple of years ago and finally got around to making it! I used Bergere Teddy and Bergere Barisienne yarns, both of which are very soft and make a very cuddly toy.
The pattern is designed for a slightly heavier yarn than Barisienne, so I had to add some stitches and rows here and there. (Added 3 rows to the legs and a stitch and a row to the fluffy top of the head.) I also knitted the legs and tail in the round using double-pointed needles.
I find I can make a more appealing face if I cut the eyes and nose out of felt and sew them on.
