There are a number of special small people in my life and, while I was visiting some of them recently, they watched me knitting and each requested that I knit them something specific.  Thus the SP Project (small person) was borne.

The first request required a departure from my normal knitting style – the request was for a knitted teddy bear… gulp!  In a fortuitous circumstance, I received this little booklet through the post recently, Knitted Bears by Val Pierce. So, here is my very first attempt at a knitted bear, ready for its clothes and to have some facial features added…

As my Clapotis is completed (alas not blocked), and I haven’t had time to cast-on for my next project, that’s it from me this week – I’m off to knit a teddy bear dress!

Head on over to Tami’s Amis, and Ginny’s Yarn Along for more of today’s Works-in-Progress…
