Crocheting
a panda pattern is a fun and creative way to add some charm to your handmade
projects. Here's a simple way to create a panda crochet pattern:
Materials Needed:
·
Black
and white yarn
·
Crochet
hook
·
Yarn
needle
·
Fiberfill
stuffing
Step 1: Create the Head
Using black yarn, start with a magic circle and crochet 6 single crochets into
the circle. Join with a slip stitch and continue to crochet in rounds until the
head measures about 2 inches in diameter. Change to white yarn and crochet two
more rounds. Stuff the head with fiberfill stuffing before closing the top.
Step 2: Make the Ears To
create the ears, use black yarn and make 2 small circles with 6 single crochets
each. Make two more circles with white yarn, and sew the black circles onto the
white circles to create the panda's ears. Sew the ears onto the top of the
head.
Step 3: Create the Eyes
Using black yarn, create two small circles with 6 single crochets each. Stuff
the circles with fiberfill and sew them onto the head, leaving some space
between them for the nose.
Step 4: Add the Nose
Using black yarn, create a small oval shape with 4 single crochets. Sew the
nose onto the center of the head, between the eyes.
Step 5: Create the Body
Using black yarn, crochet a chain of 15 stitches. Join the chain into a ring
with a slip stitch. Continue to crochet in rounds, increasing stitches every
few rounds to create a chubby body shape. When the body is the desired size,
switch to white yarn and crochet two more rounds. Stuff the body with fiberfill
before closing the top.
Step 6: Attach the Head
to the Body Sew the head onto the top of the body.
Step 7: Create the Arms
and Legs To make the arms and legs, use black yarn to create two small circles
with 6 single crochets each. Use white yarn to make two more circles and sew
the black circles onto the white circles. Make two more circles for the feet
using black yarn. Stuff the arms and legs with fiberfill and sew them onto the
body.

8: Finish the Panda Add any finishing touches you like, such as creating a
small tail or adding a bow to the panda's ear. Your crochet panda is complete!
