Eeeek, I could squeal with excitement! 🥰 I’ve been so giddy to share these makes with you! I’m absolutely over the moon to finally announce that I’ve had the pure joy of collaborating with the Crochet Society again, this time to bring you a brand-new collection that blends crochet and the timeless magic of the Carebears!

Care Bears were such a huge part of my childhood, and they still hold a really special place in my heart. I can remember hours spent watching their movies, snuggling my toys, and being completely captivated by their colourful world in my Panini sticker. album Out of them all, Grumpy Bear has always been my favourite – I’ve got such a soft spot for him. There’s just something so endearing about his grumbles and frowns, because underneath it all, he’s loyal, caring, and full of heart.

Meet the full Carebear Collection

Crochet your own wonderful Care Bear to keep and treasure forever! Whether making for yourself or a loved one, these beautiful, officially licensed kits have everything you need to create your own bear friends.

What’s Inside the Collection?

There are six exclusive kits;

• Funshine Bear: Funshine Bear is all about fun, laughter, and living life with a sunny attitude. Whether it’s playing games, going on adventures, or just making someone smile, he brings energy and joy wherever he goes. His smiling sun belly badge shines as brightly as his cheerful personality.
• Friend Bear: Friend Bear is the embodiment of kindness and connection. She’s always ready to lend a helping hand, share a smile, or bring new friends together. With her twin smiling flowers belly badge, she reminds everyone that friendship makes everything better.
• Wish Bear: Wish Bear believes in the power of dreams and the magic of wishing big. She’s always encouraging others to follow their hearts and never give up on what they hope for. With her shooting star belly badge, she brings a little stardust and a lot of hope to every adventure.
• Cheer Bear: Cheer Bear is an eternal optimist. She’s always looking on the bright side, lifting spirits, and helping others find happiness even when things seem gloomy. If someone’s sad, grumpy, or feeling left out, Cheer Bear is the one who’ll bring a smile to their face.
• Good Luck Bear: Good Luck Bear is the bearer of good fortune and positive vibes. He’s always ready to share a little luck with his friends, whether it’s finding a lucky penny or just being in the right place at the right time. With his four-leaf clover belly badge and cheerful grin, he brings confidence, hope, and a bit of magic wherever he goes.
• Grumpy Bear: Grumpy Bear might seem gloomy on the outside, but he has a heart of gold underneath his blue fur. He’s the first to grumble when things go wrong, but he always shows up when his friends need him most. His raincloud belly badge reminds everyone that it’s okay to feel down sometimes – what matters is caring anyway.

Each kit comes with:

• 1 x Keepsake box measuring 180mm x 140mm x 100mm
• 1 x 3.5mm Crochet Hook
• 1 x Stitch Marker
• 1 x Postcard linking to patterns and stitch library
• 1 x Pack of stuffing
• 1 x Pair of 8mm safety eyes
• 1 x Totebag
• 1 x Finishing Label
• 1 x Darning needle
• 1x relevant Carebear tummy patch
• 100g of Crochet Society Cuddly Craft DK  yarn in themed colours

For each of the bears I used Crochet Society’s Cuddly Craft DK which I’ve used a few times now for different projects. If you are not familiar with it, it’s a 100% polyester chenille yarn (100g / 220m) and it’s really nice to work with, unlike some other chenille yarns, you can still make out your stitches making it one of the easier chenille’s to crochet with – and as a bonus it’s lovely and soft.

Why You’ll Love It

These kits are perfect for crafters of all levels, from beginners looking for a fun project to seasoned crocheters wanting to add a touch of nostalgia to their creations. The characters are not only fun to make but could also make charming gifts for someone special.

And if that’s not enough Carebears for you Crochet Society have also put together a storage pouch and stitch marker bundle which you might want to check out.
