Amigurumi Penguin Crochet Free Pattern
Hello my visitors who love to knit amigurumi. In this article, I share new amigurumi patterns for you free of charge. To knit free amigurumi patterns, it will be enough to follow the terms I shared for you. You can delight your children with amigurumi toys.
Supply List:
Yarn – Worsted weight yarn in black, white, yellow, light blue, and red. I used Rico Creative Cotton Aran (less than one 50g skein per color) in Black, White, Ice Blue, Cherry, and Sand
Size US E/3.5mm crochet hook
Yarn needle
Stuffing
Stitch marker
2 safety eyes, 9 mm
Key (Stitches Used):
magic ring
ch – chain
ss – slip stitch
sc – single crochet
hdc – half double crochet
sc2tog – single crochet 2 together
invdec – invisible decrease (an alternative to the sc2tog stitch). To invdec, insert your hook through the front loop of the indicated st, then insert your hook into the front loop of the next st. Your hook is now inserted into the front loops of both stitches you’d like to decrease into one stitch. Yarn over and draw up loop through both sts, then yarn over and pull through two loops on hook.
Beak:
R1: In sand, 4 sc in a magic ring. (4)
R2: (Sc, 2 sc) 2x around. (6)

If needed, use the end of your hook to push the beak outward so it has a cone shape. Fasten off, leaving a long tail for attaching. Set aside.
Head:
Head is worked from top to bottom.
