Our two and a half year old grandson chose a bear for the front of his new vest. Since I couldn’t find a graph for what I wanted I made one up and here it is. While knitting it up I realised it was going to be too short so added another ten rows into the body. The eyes, nose and mouth were added afterwards using duplicate stitch, that saved all the fiddly business knitting in small pieces of wool and keeping it tidy.

So cute. You encourage me to try creating my own colorwork.
