Red Heart Super Saver Jumbo Speckle Crochet Bears

NEW YARN! Red Heart Super Saver Jumbo Speckle just hit shelves! I think it looks a lot like confetti sprinkles so I’m made a Christmas Confetti Bear with the Cherry Speckle color and I will be making a Birthday Bear with the White Speckle. And I might just need to make a whole set with all the fun colors in the Jumbo Speckle line. The blue and pink shades are absolutely adorable!
