About This Mini Bear Pumpkin Toast Crochet Pattern

This mini toast bear is made with a cream-colored face, a golden brown crust, two small bear ears, a tiny embroidered snout, and a flat pumpkin topper shaped with yarn wraps.

The front piece is crocheted first, then the crust is worked around the face. The back piece is made separately and sewn to the front with light stuffing inside. This gives the toast a soft, slightly rounded but still flat shape.

The pumpkin is made from a small BLO rectangle, then shaped into a mini pumpkin. If you love fall crochet pieces, you may also enjoy this free crochet pumpkin pattern for a larger seasonal project.

Mini / Keychain Version

For a smaller Bear Pumpkin Toast:

• Use sport or fingering-weight yarn
• Use approximately a 2.0–2.25 mm hook
• Work the same stitch counts
• Stuff lightly
• Sew a reinforced yarn loop through several stitches at the top of the toast before attaching the jump ring and keychain clasp

Using thinner yarn is the safest way to scale the design down while preserving the original proportions

Pattern Notes

• Work in continuous rounds unless stated otherwise.
• Use a stitch marker to mark the first stitch of each round.
• Stuff the toast lightly so it keeps a soft, rounded shape without becoming too bulky.
• The face is made first in cream yarn, then the golden brown crust is worked around it.
• The back piece is crocheted separately and sewn to the front piece.
• The pumpkin is crocheted flat, then shaped into a small pumpkin with yarn wraps.

For a cute collection idea, you can display this toast bear beside other tiny food-inspired crochet pieces like the Loaf Cat Crochet Pattern or the Avocado Crochet Keychain Pattern.

Bear Toast Back

Use golden brown yarn.

• Crochet a second piece using the same shaping and stitch counts as R1–R16 of the front.
• Keep the back completely golden brown; no cream color change is needed.
• FO, leaving a long tail for sewing.

Important: The front and back should finish with the same outer stitch count and approximately the same dimensions so the edges align neatly during assembly.

---

Joining the Front and Back

• Place the back piece behind the front piece with the wrong sides facing each other.
• Use stitch markers to hold the pieces in place. Sew the front and back together with golden brown yarn, matching the stitches evenly around the edge.
• When the toast is about halfway sewn closed, add a small amount of fiberfill. Do not overstuff. The toast should stay soft and slightly flat like a mini slice of bread.
• Finish sewing closed and hide the yarn tail.

---

Pumpkin

Use orange yarn.

• Row 1: Ch 10. Starting in the 2nd ch from the hook, work 9 hdc. Turn. [9]
• Rows 2–10: BLO 9 hdc. Turn. [9]
• FO, leaving a long tail for sewing and shaping.

---

Shaping the Pumpkin

• Fold the rectangle so Row 1 and Row 10 meet.
• Sew the two short edges together to form a small tube.
• Thread the yarn tail around one open edge and pull tightly to close. Secure with a knot.
• Add a small amount of stuffing inside the pumpkin.
• Thread the yarn around the second opening and pull tightly to close.
• To create the pumpkin shape, pass the yarn through the center of the pumpkin and around the outside about 5 times, pulling gently each time to form pumpkin grooves.
• Secure the yarn and hide the tail.

---

Pumpkin Stem

Use grass green yarn.

• Ch 4.
• Starting in the 2nd ch from the hook, work:
• 3 sc.
• FO and leave a tail for sewing.
• Sew the stem to the center top of the pumpkin.

---

Final Assembly

1. Prepare the Front and Back:
   Check that both toast pieces are approximately the same size and shape. Weave in any yarn tails that will not be used for sewing.
2. Add the Face:
   Position the eyes, nose, and mouth on the front toast piece before joining the front and back. Check that the face is centered and balanced. Add optional pink blush to the cheeks.
3. Attach the Bear Ears:
   Position one ear near each upper corner of the toast. Pin both ears first to check symmetry, then sew them securely to the front piece.
4. Attach the Mini Pumpkin:
   Place the crochet pumpkin where you want it on the front of the toast. Pin it first, then sew around the back of the pumpkin with small hidden stitches. Make sure the stem points upward and the pumpkin sits flat against the toast.
5. Join Front and Back:
   Place the front and back pieces together with the wrong sides facing inward. Sew evenly around the outside edge, matching corresponding stitches.
6. Stuff the Toast:
   Before closing the final section, add small amounts of fiberfill. Keep the stuffing light to moderate so the toast stays flat and soft rather than becoming round like a ball.
7. Close the Opening:
   Finish sewing the remaining edge and hide the yarn tail inside the amigurumi.
8. Add Keychain Hardware — Optional:
   Sew a strong yarn loop through several stitches at the top of the toast, preferably between the ears. Reinforce it several times before attaching the jump ring and keychain clasp.
9. Final Shaping:
   Gently shape the toast, ears, and pumpkin with your fingers. Check that all sewn pieces are secure and weave in any remaining yarn tails.

Tip: Pin the ears, face, and pumpkin in position before sewing. Small changes in placement can make a big difference to the finished expression.

Finishing Tips

• For a cleaner, handmade finish, hide all yarn tails inside the toast body.
• Use small, tight stitches when attaching the ears and pumpkin so they stay secure.
• Do not overstuff the toast. A little fiberfill is enough to give it shape while keeping it flat and soft.
• If your pumpkin looks too round, gently press it between your fingers and pull the groove wraps a little tighter.
• If your toast edges curl, shape the piece with your hands after stuffing and sewing.
• For a softer kawaii look, add tiny blush marks under the eyes using pink yarn, felt, or pastel powder.

Your Mini Bear Pumpkin Toast Crochet Pattern is now complete.

Customization Ideas

• You can easily personalize this mini bear pumpkin toast with small changes.
• Use a darker brown yarn for a toasted bread effect.
• Make the pumpkin in mustard, rust, or soft pastel orange for a different fall look.
• Add a tiny bow between one ear and the pumpkin.
• Turn it into a magnet by sewing a small magnet securely inside the back before closing.
• Make a full autumn charm set with this pumpkin toast, a tiny pumpkin, and a mini leaf.
