Val Pierce's passion for crochet and knitting began when her father
taught her to knit at the age of five. Having worked for many major
yarn companies and various well-known designers, she decided it was
time to branch out and begin making her own designs, and her
designs appear regularly in national knitting and crochet
magazines. She teaches a range of needlecrafts, to both adults and
children. Val lives and works in Shropshire, UK.

Nov 13 This eye-catching, brightly colourful book is cheering just
to look through. Val Pierce has assembled an endearing gallery of
teddy bear characters for you to knit and to crochet. Each one has
its own specially designed outfit, right down to its tiny shoes.
These charming little bears stand just 20cm tall and are knitted in
simple garter stitch. The crocheted bears are even smaller (10cm)
and will sit comfortably in the palm of a child's hand. Each one
takes just a few hours to complete, including its clothes and
accessories. Easy-to-follow instructions and simple patterns make
these little bears a delight to create. Whimsical personalities
such as Baby Bear, Peter Pumpkin and Katy Strawberry will appeal to
young and old alike. There are also bears for every occasion to
give as thoughtful and original gifts.
