You will need:
Step 1
Turn the sock inside out so that the toe section is nearest to you and the heel is facing you – the heel becomes teddy’s face. Cut a line centrally from the toe towards the heel, finishing half way – this will become teddy’s legs.
Step 2
Cut the shape for teddy’s ears a little way above the heel and save the excess top of the sock to make the arms.
Step 3
Sew the ears with a running back-stitch, and then sew the legs, leaving a gap in one of teddy’s feet to insert the filling.
Step 4
Turn the sock the right way round and stuff generously so that teddy is nicely full – finish by sewing up foot.
Step 5
Cut the remainder of the top of the sock into two small squares and roll to create two arms – attach to teddy’s sides.
Step 6
Finally, tie a ribbon round teddy’s neck (if desired) and sew on buttons for eyes and a button or pom-pom for teddy’s nose.
