MONOKUMA (DANGARONPA)

This was a request from a friend of my blog.  This was not an easy pattern to do because he is half white and half black.  Of course, he has a classic teddy bear body.  Monokuma is the main antagonist of Dangaronpa game franchise.  He serves as the mascot for the whole franchise.  Monokuma is a bear that his whole face and body are divided by the center into two parts.  It resembles the Yin-Yang symbol, of which there is a balance between good and evil.

  1. I'm having trouble understanding and crocheting the body, I'm stuck on the 3rd rnd. Would it be possible to get some pictures of that step to help?
