Panda

Panda.  The Panda doll is approximately 6,3’’ /16 cm/ tall.

The toy is knitted in the round and is recommended for Advanced Beginner Knitters.

Materials needed  • 4 double-pointed needles in a size suitable for the yarn weight you are using. I recommend using needles a size or two smaller than the yarn calls for, to produce a firm fabric. İ used Needles size US 4 (3,5 mm).  • White and black colored yarns for toy. I used Nako Sport Wool ( 25% Wool, 75% Acrylic; 100gr = 120m ).  • Toy stuffing  • Yarn needle  • Stitch holder  • 2 plastic eyes  • Black felt

All rows are worked in the round, this helps avoid ugly seams .  For an online tutorial of how I start knitting my toys using a crochet hook cast on from the middle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60sPwLC-3ZY
