This is Churchill. She’s named after Churchill, Manitoba, which is famous for its polar bears. I knit her from Ysolda Teague’s Otto pattern. I thought she’d turn out smaller, a lot smaller actually. We’ll see if she still makes it to Peterborough in this box!

I intended to finish her two weeks ago, so she’ll make a belated 90th birthday present for Helen. I think it’s a fairly new thing, but Helen finds comfort in teddy bears. I hope Churchill provides good company.
