This free crochet hooded baby afghan pattern will give your favorite child the chance to feel like a cozy little panda. The blanket is created first and then hood is added after, requiring only one simple seam at the top of the hood. The size and weight of this hooded afghan makes it great for kids approximately 1.5-5 years old.

This panda works up quickly in chunky yarn. Customize to make a crochet koala or polar bear too--the possibilities are endless!
