Body
We start crocheting with a white yarn
1. 6sc in MR
2. 6inc=12
3. (1sc, 1inc)*6 =18
4. (2sc, 1inc)*6 =24
5. (3sc, 1inc)*6= 30
6. 1sc, 1inc, (4 sc, 1inc)*5, 3sc=36
7. (5sc, 1inc)*6=42
8. 3sc, 1inc, (6sc, 1inc)*5, 3sc=48

9. to 13. rows repeat 48 loops
14. (6 sc, 1dec)*6=42
15. (12 sc, 1dec)*3=39
16. 5sc, 1dec, (11 sc, 1dec)*2, 6sc, = 36
17. to 21. rows repeat 36 loops
Change the yarn to black
22. (10sc, 1dec)*3 =33
23. 3 sc, 1dec, (9 sc, 1dec)*2, 6 sc =30
24. (8sc, 1dec)*3 =27
25. 26. rows crochet 27 loops
We leave the yarn of the required length for sewing on the head, cut it off. The body is evenly stuffed with filler.

Head
We begin to crochet the head from the muzzle, white yarn
1. 6 sc in MR

11. to 18. rows repeat 54 loops
19. 9sc, 3dec, 24sc., 3 dec., 9sc.=48
By decreasing the loops in a row, we get a very light oval effect. If you need a completely round head, then subtract in the usual way: (7sc, 1dec)*6=48.
20. 3sc, 1dec., (6sc,1dec)*5, 3sc= 42
21. (5sc,1dec)*6= 36

We fill the head with filler. We make sure that the muzzle is densely filled.
We continue crocheting.

Click here  for the video tutorial on how to sew the panda together and also how to do the color changes. Video was filmed in the following order

stuff and sew on muzzle
sew on eye patches
how to do the color changes
stuff the head
how to close up the body
sew on the limbs, tail, ears

If you prefer to sew on the muzzle and eye patches before the doll head is done then make all those pieces first. At the end of row 21 of the head you can sew them in place. I show how to do this in the video. In the video I sewed the eye patches too far apart so after I finished filming I took them off and glued them on closer together.
