Ursa Minor - Bear Paw Print Yoke Sweater Knitting Pattern

Loose fit, adult unisex sweater knitting pattern pdf, instant download. Design with actual bear paw prints around the yoke. 

So, I’ve seen these yoke sweaters with paw prints pop up in my feeds every now and then and I wanted to make one for my BF. I was looking at the pattern, and just before I hit the buy-button I realized something important: The paw prints were of a dog!!! Or wolf or whatever creatures there is, but
they were NOT Bear PAWS!
Sacrilegious!
Ther were no bear paw sweaters!!! I had to make my own! Luckily, we had visited the Ranua Zoo not long ago and I had seen bear paw prints there and I realized my mistake!
So… what’s a girl to do? DIY of course!
And here it is! The Ursa Minor sweater
