This project is small and quick to make. We’ll be working in a spiral using a stitch marker to keep track of the rounds. Crochet into the back loop only of all stitches and I’ll be using English terms so look at a conversion chart if you’d like American terms. Lets go!
Round 1. With grey yarn create a magic ring containing 6dc.
Round 2. 2dc into each stitch (12 stitches total)
Round 3. *2dc into first stitch, 1dc in next stitch. *repeat 6 times (18 stitches total)

Fasten off and sew all ends through the body, pull tight and cut off so the end disappears inside.
Cut out an elongated semi circle shape in white felt as shown in the photos and sew to the front using blanket stitch or whatever you like the look of. Sew through the body and the corner of the felt piece a few times in yellow, as shown, to create feet.
Use black thread and create French knots for eyes (I couldn’t actually get them to work so just embroidered little circles but I think the knots would look better.)

Thank YOU!
My twin sons’ grade 1 class is called the Pontificating Penguins! I’m going to make up 25 of these for the boy to bring to school and give to their class mates at the end of the year. Thank you! What a nice simple pattern. :)
