Panda Amigurumi (Haken)

I’m usually a slow crocheter, but this pattern’s simple stitches kept me motivated, and the finished panda is a solid 10 inches of pure squish. The instructions were clear enough that I didn’t have to redo a single row, which never happens for me.

The stitches are so simple that I finished Pip in two evenings, and the finished panda is surprisingly plush for its size. My daughter immediately claimed it for bedtime, so I guess I’m making another one.

Mine came out to exactly 10 inches tall, and the instructions were so clear I finished the body in one evening while binge-watching a show. It's genuinely soft and squeezable, the kind of thing you don't want to put down once it's done.
