Check out this fantastic free crochet mini plush bear pattern from Sweet Softies called the Star Bear. This chubby little teddy resembles a cute star with stubby limbs and works up in under 25 minutes. The clever design is completely no-sew, meaning you crochet the whole body in one piece and only use a needle for stitching on the tiny nose and mouth details.
To get that ultra-soft texture, grab some bulky weight #5 chenille velvet yarn and a 5 mm hook. Your finished plushie will stand about 2.75 inches tall, making it an ideal DIY keychain charm, party favor, or quick craft fair item. With easy step by step instructions, even beginners can breeze through this fast, fun project.
