Ying is the free panda crochet pattern you have been looking for. Nothing like a regular teddy bear, this panda amigurumi is right out of the wild and a perfect new addition to your nursery decor.

I wanted to do something different with this panda pattern, specifically I wanted to design something more true to life than the average teddy bear.

Ying is on all fours, with his head tilted to be even more adorable.

This pattern is for crochet only.

All patterns are written in English, in US terms using Craft Yarn Council abbreviations.
