Alpha Teddies
As we go through life, we all meet our own personal heroes.
These little guys were knitted at the request of someone very dear to me. My best friend fostered and then adopted two little boys and wanted them to have a special toy to grow up with. These teddies have the initials of those gorgeous little boys on their jumpers.
Why not knit your own personal hero a teddy with their
first initial?
Maybe you could make 3 teddies and spell out NHS, or make one with the initials of your favourite key worker?
