Panda Bear Amigurumi Crochet Pattern Free!

April 9th, 2010 Thought I would share my first ever amigurumi crochet pattern that Ive written for free! This amigurumi pattern designed by me gives instructions on how to crochet Pablo the Playful Panda. It is very easy to crochet and only requires knowledge of 3 crochet stitches single crochet, increase and decrease. Pablo means small and humble in Spanish and his finished size is about 5 (12 cm) high. He is certainly small and humble like his name suggests, but he is oh so playful! I also have the pattern available in PDF if you head on over to Facebook and like my page and leave a message for me I will email it to you for FREE! {This pattern is under international copyright laws. Please do not copy, redistribute or sell. The written instructions and photographs in this pattern are intended for personal and noncommercial use and permission is granted to print the pattern for such use. If you wish to sell the items made from this pattern, please contact me first.} Here is the material list: Crochet Hook: Size G6 / 4mm Yarn: any Worsted Weight 4 ply yarn is fine. Colors: Off White and Black Craft Eyes: 6mm Solid Black Plastic Craft Eyes with safety backing Craft Felt : Black, 2 small patches Needle and black thread: for sewing on felt patches Yarn or Tapestry Needle: for sewing parts together Pins: for holding parts together while you sew Poly-fil: polyester fiberfill for stuffing Scissors Click on thumbnail to view larger image

SC = Single Crochet ST= Stitch INC = Increase DEC = Decrease To change color of the yarn, begin the single crochet with the first color. This should leave you with two loops on your hook. Now grab the second color with the hook and pull it through both loops to complete the stitch. Now continue the next single crochet in the second color. MUZZLE Off White yarn. Start with Chain 2. R1: 5 SC in second chain from hook (5) R2: SC 3, INC 2 (7) R3: INC 1, SC 3, INC 3 (11) R4: SC 2 (2) Yes, thats right, this row only has 2 stitches and should finish off at the top of the muzzle. Fasten off leaving a 10 inch (25 cm) tail for sewing on to head. Because the muzzle is so small, instead of stuffing with poly-fil, I use left over bits of off white yarn. Sew on nose and mouth with black yarn. HEAD Off White yarn. Start with Chain 2 R1: 6 SC in second chain from hook (6) R2: INC 1 in each ST (12) R3: * SC 1, INC 1 * repeat 6 times (18) R4: * SC 2, INC 1 * repeat 6 times (24) R5: * SC 2, INC 1 * repeat 8 times (32) R6: SC in each ST (32) R7: * SC 3, INC 1 * repeat 8 times (40) R8: SC in each ST (40) R9: as above (40) R10: as above (40) R11: as above (40) R12: * SC 3, DEC 1 * repeat 8 times (32) R13: SC in each ST (32) R14: * SC 2, DEC 1 * repeat 8 times (24) Insert eyes through the patches of felt by cutting a tiny slit in the felt. Place into position on the head and sew patches onto the head. Fasten on the safety backings. R15: * SC 1, DEC 1 * repeat 8 times (16) R16: * SC 2, DEC 1 * repeat 4 times (12) R17: SC in each ST (12) Fasten off and stuff with poly:fil. EARS (make 2) Black yarn. Start with chain 2 R1: 6 SC in second chain from hook (6) R2: INC 1 in each ST (12) R3: as above (12) R4: as above (12) Fasten off, leave a 6 inch (15 cm) tail for sewing onto head, flatten the ears so that they are in the shape of a half circle and two layers thick, no need to stuff with poly-fil. {You will be able to see what I mean in this picture here.} BODY Off White yarn. Start with Chain 2. R1: 5 SC in second chain from hook (5) R2: INC 1 in each ST (10) R3: * SC 1, INC 1 * repeat 5 times (15) R4: INC 1 in each ST (30) R5: SC in each ST (30) R6: as above (30) R7: as above (30) R8: as above (30) R9: * SC 4, DEC 1 * repeat 5 times (25) Change to black yarn

Angie December 19th, 2010 at 4:03 pm Thanks for the pic Marisa! I love your pink and black Panda pretty good for your first amigurumi!

Nick December 26th, 2010 at 12:16 am Hi, I was interested in this design but was curious as to what the * signify in the instructions. Could anyone let me know what they mean? Thank you very much, Nick.

Angie January 1st, 2011 at 1:00 am The * symbol means to repeat what is between the *s the number of times stated.

Sandy January 29th, 2011 at 1:41 pm Thank you so much for sharing this adorable pattern. I love pandas, so I just had to make it. I am relatively new to crochet, so this was my first non-scarf project. It turned out wonderfully. Im going to send you a picture!

Angie January 29th, 2011 at 2:32 pm Youre welcome Sandy! Glad to hear that you like how your Panda turned out, I look forward to seeing the picture!

Sallie February 21st, 2011 at 1:51 pm Adorable. I would love to have the pattern or a panda bear about a foot high. Any ideas on where to find one. Sallie

Wendy March 12th, 2011 at 3:03 am I love your pattern and used it to make my first ever crochet toy a blue and white panda with a tuft of blue and white hair. I can send you a photo if youd like. :)

Wendy, Your Blue Panda is soooo very cute love the tuft of hair! Thanks for sending a picture of it!

Wendy March 13th, 2011 at 2:19 am Youre welcome. I enjoyed making him, and am now making a pink one. Totally love the pattern. Thanks for posting it. :)

Lisa Gelman May 17th, 2011 at 9:13 am Id love the pattern!! Hes so super cute!! Ive just finished my first crochet amigurumi (bunny) and he could be next!

Shalini May 24th, 2011 at 10:06 pm Hi, i totally loved yr pattern. and want to try it out however i am very very new to crochet and am learning and just picking up stuff is there a way/pictures wherein i can see and follow how to make this maybe like a tutorial because since i am new there are lots of terms that i misunderstand thanks for the help!!!

Angie May 25th, 2011 at 12:50 am Hi Shalini! Thanks for your message! You can try this Youtube tutorial, I found it helpful when starting out myself. It takes a while to get used to the terms in the written pattern, but you will get the hang of it the more you do it. Hope this helps and let me know if there is anything in particular about the pattern that you dont understand.

Anne November 23rd, 2011 at 11:33 am I make a panda bear amigurumi. You can see it in my blog le-brico-d-anne.over-blog.fr. Thanks for your free pattern.

Stella December 2nd, 2011 at 8:40 pm Hi! I am very very new to crocheting and I have only seen inc 1 in instructions. What does inc 2 mean? Is it much different from inc 1? Thanks!

Angie December 2nd, 2011 at 9:00 pm inc stands for increase, which means crochet 2 stitches in the one stitch. Here is a video to show you how: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMgw6omIA1c inc 2 means to increase the next 2 stitches. Hope that makes sense!

Angela December 28th, 2011 at 7:06 am i love this pattern it was quick and easy to follow. i made one for my friend because she loves pandas. It came out great and she loves it.

Alberta Stasiak January 4th, 2012 at 11:29 am I think the bear is so cute I can hardly wait to make him.
