Introduction

Welcome back to Jane Tanner Designs Crochet YouTube channel! In this video, we will be creating a crochet amigurumi panda using a pattern curated by Chat GTP. I'm excited to see how this project turns out, so let's jump right in and create our adorable panda friend!

Materials Needed

Before we get started, let's gather all the materials we'll need:

• Worsted weight yarn in black and white (I'll be using Red Heart yarn)
• Acrylic thread crochet hook appropriate for the yarn weight
• Stuffing
• Yarn needle
• Scissors

Crochet Basics

Before diving into the panda pattern, let's briefly go over some crochet basics for those new to the craft. Crocheting involves using a crochet hook to create interlocking loops of yarn to form various stitches. The basic stitches we'll be using for this pattern are:

• Chain
• Single crochet
• Increase
• Decrease

Now that we have our materials ready and know the basic stitches, let's start creating our crochet amigurumi panda pattern.

Starting the Panda Pattern

Step 1: Magic Ring

To begin, we will start with a magic ring using the black yarn. The magic ring allows us to create a tightly closed center for our project.

Crocheting a Cute Amigurumi Panda

Hello and welcome back to Jane Tanner Designs Crochet YouTube channel! I'm so excited for this video because I asked Chat GTP to make me a mega roomy panda pattern. I'm excited to see where this goes. I've briefly looked over the pattern, and I kind of have an idea of what it's going to look like. However, I can already tell you that it's not going to look accurate. But that's okay! Let's jump right in and make this crochet amigurumi panda using the pattern curated for me by Chat GTP.

Introduction

In this tutorial, we will be creating an adorable crochet amigurumi panda. This pattern is perfect for both beginners and experienced crocheters. The finished panda will make a great gift or addition to your amigurumi collection. So, let's gather our materials and get started!

Materials Needed

Before we begin, let's make sure we have all the necessary materials ready:

• Worsted weight yarn in black and white (Red Heart yarn works well)
• Acrylic thread crochet hook appropriate for the yarn weight
• Stuffing
• Yarn needle
• Scissors

Now that we have everything we need, let's dive into the step-by-step process of creating our adorable amigurumi panda. Each step will guide you through the pattern, ensuring that you can easily follow along and create your own cute panda.

Step 1: Magic Ring

We will start our panda pattern with a magic ring using the black yarn. The magic ring technique allows us to create a tightly closed center for our crochet project.

• With the black yarn, create a loop by crossing the loose end over the working yarn.
• Insert your crochet hook through the loop and grab the working yarn.
• Pull the working yarn through the loop to create a new loop on your hook.
• Begin the first round by making six single crochets into the magic ring. Make sure to pull the ring tightly to close the hole.

Step 2: Rounds 1 - 6

For rounds 1 to 6, we will continue working with the black yarn and single crochet stitches. Each round will increase the number of stitches, gradually shaping the panda's head.

• Round 1: Single crochet six times into the magic ring.
• Round 2: Increase in each stitch around. (12 stitches)
• Round 3: Single crochet, increase repeat around.
• Round 4: Single crochet in the next two stitches, increase repeat around.
• Round 5: Single crochet in the next three stitches, increase repeat around.
• Round 6: Single crochet in each stitch around.

Step 3: Changing Colors

To add the distinctive white color to our panda's head, we will switch to white yarn starting from round 7.

• To switch colors, fasten off the black yarn, leaving a long tail for weaving in later.
• Join the white yarn to the first stitch of round 7 and continue with single crochet stitches in each stitch around.

Step 4: Shaping the Head

In rounds 6 to 11, we will continue working with the white yarn to shape the panda's head.

• Rounds 6 to 11: Single crochet in each stitch around. Repeat this round six more times.

Step 5: Adding Stuffing

Once you have completed round 11, it's time to start stuffing the head of our amigurumi panda. Make sure to fill the head firmly but not too tightly.

Step 6: Rounds 12 - 16

In rounds 12 to 16, we will begin shaping the panda's face by adding decreases.

• Round 12: Single crochet in each stitch around.
• Round 13: Single crochet in the next stitch, decrease repeat around.
• Round 14: Single crochet in the next two stitches, decrease repeat around.
• Round 15: Single crochet in the next three stitches, decrease repeat around.
• Round 16: Decrease in each stitch around.

Step 7: Fastening Off and Weaving in Ends

Once you have completed round 16, fasten off the white yarn, leaving a long tail for weaving in later. With your yarn needle, weave in all the loose ends to secure your work.

Congratulations! You have finished crocheting the head of your adorable amigurumi panda. In the next steps, we will continue with the body, ears, and assembly of our panda.
