Reviews of the original pattern on Etsy.

This is great! As with the other patterns I bought from this shop, the instructions were clear and detailed, and it worked up quickly. I love it!

The pattern is fairly easy to follow. The instructions for the front paws are a little sparse, but the video helps you work it out. The result is really adorable.

So cute! I love the way the body is crocheted so it lies down. A challenge, but a real pleasure!

A very detailed pattern, with additional video explanations. I just could not get the nose right.

The instructions were very detailed (with nice pictures) which helped me get a super cute result, I love this pattern!

I love this pattern 😍. Easy and well written.

Great pattern. Easy to follow directions and pictures for examples.

Overall a really cute pattern, I just think it's a little unfortunate that most of the guidance pictures don't show the actual product but another one that uses the same pattern with a single color. I had this weird light brown 'gap' between the back feet and the belly, I kept rereading the pattern but I couldn't figure out where I went wrong. I think with pictures using the actual colors it would've been easier.

Beautiful red panda. Clear and easy pattern.
I love it, it is so cute! It is well explained even though it is in English, and I think I will manage. Thank you so much for this tutorial.
I cannot wait to make it!
