Free crochet polar bear ornament pattern: a Polar Bear Ball Ornament amigurumi, about 8 cm tall in fingering yarn with a 2 mm hook. A round white polar bear head with small ears, a cream muzzle, a black nose, pink cheeks and a green knitted hat with a red cuff and a white pompom, hung from a red loop. You need about 50 m of yarn: 30 m white, 5 m green, 5 m red, 5 m cream and 5 m pink. Plan on roughly 2 hours. A winter tree ornament that also makes a nice gift tag decoration or window charm. You can spin the 3D model and follow the round-by-round pattern, and the hat is just a short cone with a ribbed cuff.

- Size before assembly: about 6.2 cm at the widest, 4.9 cm long; 27 rounds.
- → Insert the safety eyes now (positions: see “Face”) and fix the backs. Start stuffing (firmly) and keep adding as you decrease.
- Top up the stuffing if needed. Fasten off leaving a 15 cm tail; with the needle weave it through the front loops of all 6 stitches of the last round, pull tight and hide the end inside.
- Size before assembly: about 1.7 cm at the widest, 1.2 cm long; 5 rounds.
- Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff. Shape it into a dish: rounds 1–2 are the front of the piece, the magic ring its centre. Push the centre in so the front is concave (about 2 mm at the centre) and turn rounds 3–5 to the back: they make a thick rounded rim (about 5.9 mm thick) and lie behind as a second layer; the piece is about 17 mm across.<!-- (dish 70 %) -->
- A flat oval about 2.2 × 1.6 cm; 3 rounds. Worked around a chain, so it is an oval: sew it on with its long side (along the chain) running side to side. The round-start marker is in the middle of a long side (the piece's centre line), while R1 starts at a turn: after R1 shift the round start — sc 1 more (not counted in any round) and place the marker there. The increases fall on the turns.
