Is there anything that crochet can't do? From dressing our furry friends, to dressing up our kids with animal inspired gear, to creating our own hyperallergenic versions, animals and crochet just go together - and sometimes it gets a little wild! Zebra prints are a perennial favorite in fashion and decor, undoubtedly because of their chic black and white stripes. In honor of the four legged and fashionable, here are 10 free zebra crochet patterns!

Why do 85 PAGES come up to PRINT for a zebra free pattern?????
Tamara Kelly
Yikes! Which pattern?? That's a lot!

"ZEB", the Zebra

Ah, yes, that one's a pay pattern - $4.99! The closest one I linked to is Amigurumi Zebra Toy, which has 8 pages (though IMHO you only need to print out the last 6 to make it). The Zillah Zebra, linked above, also only has 6 pages.

Thanks so much for filling me in. With all the FREE patterns, i think it's stupid to PAY for one. Now I'll know if the pattern comes up with an enormous amount of pages, it has to be purchased. 🙂

I don't know if that's always the case - but Zeb is definitely a pay pattern. I haven't bought it though, so I haven't seen the page # myself. Must have very detailed instructions!

When a lot of pages come up for printing on a pattern, you're also printing out all the comments. It has nothing to do with whether the pattern is free or paid for. I always print preview so I can print only the pattern. If I avoided patterns that print out a large number of pages, I'd miss out on a lot of cute free patterns. Thanks for the zebras!
