    Rachel,

    I used a larger hook and two strands of yarn throughout and made your teddy bear coaster into a PJ bag for my granddaughter by making two bodies. I crocheted them together, leaving a space for a zipper that I sewed in by hand. It turned out really cute!

    Your pattern is great!

  28. Rachel says:

    That’s an awesome idea Cathy! I’m glad that it turned out great :)
