The second project to be featured in my 12 crafts of Christmas is this crochet penguin. This is a great project whether you are a beginner with crochet or more experienced. It’s good for beginners as there is just one stitch and all of the elements are based on a circle.
It can be made with DK yarn which you can find in many pound shops, a 4mm hook and a darning/tapestry needle.
And best of all it is a free pattern! Which can be found on the Lion Brand website. I didn’t use the toy safety eyes, instead I created them using a French knot.
If you’ve never crocheted before there are tons of free tutorials out there, this is a great starting place.
