pingwin

The Penguin from the pictures is made using Himalaya Dolphin Baby yarn (about 1.5 skeins of the main colour) and a 4.0mm size hook, and YarnArt Jeans with hook 2.2mm for details like the eyes.  My plushie, made with these materials is about 24cm (10 inches) high. Of course you can use any yarn you like. The pattern is almost seamless - the only parts to sew are the beak and the eyes. The pattern is meant for the intermediate crocheters.
