Polar Bears, Seals + Penguins

Dear users, dear authors,
welcome to our summer contrast program: How about a little winter feeling with snow and ice in the middle of summer? With Crazypatterns, that's no problem.
We have patterns in the shop for polar bears, seals, harbor seals, and penguins.
That will cool you down. :-)
Have fun.

Cheerful Penguin 

--> Go to the pattern here



This little, cheerful penguin, approx. 40 cm tall, brings a smile to many people's faces.

In my detailed crochet pattern, I also use lots of pictures to show how the penguin was made. This means the penguin is also well suited for beginners. 

Difficulty level: Easy to Intermediate 

What you need:

• Gründl Happy yarn (get 1 skein each in light gray, black, white, and yellow) 
  
• For the scarf and hat: Lisa Uni by Gründl in red and blue
  
• Stuffing 
  
• Hook size 3.5, yarn needle and scissors, pom-pom maker (alternatively 2 cardboard discs)

Almost all parts are worked in spiral rounds and joined together later.

Stitch explanation for the stitches used: 

MR = Magic Ring 
M = stitch 
FM = single crochet 
Lm = chain stitch
hStb = half double crochet
zusm. = together 
verdp. = increase stitch


The little seal is only about 7 cm long, but she’s already a pro at balancing! All you need is a few pieces of leftover yarn to crochet this little keychain. Basic crochet skills are all you need. You should, however, have already crocheted a few small items.
