12 Free Crochet Panda Patterns
Crochet pandas come down to two colors and a few shapes: a round head, black ear and eye patches, and a body worked in the round. The same pieces scale from a tiny keychain to a giant plush depending on yarn weight and hook size.
Each pattern below is an original Looplader design, crocheted from its own written instructions before publishing. The table compares them at a glance, including red pandas; the cards below group them by skill level.
