Start your own collection of critters with a Cube Penguin!

The penguin is worked in the round and uses the following techniques:

  • single crochet (increasing and decreasing)
  • back post single crochet
  • colour changes
  • amigurumi/plushie construction (basic)

The pattern can be worked in any yarn (with the appropriate hook size). If crocheted in the suggested yarn weight your finished penguin will…

  • …be approximately 13cm(5”) tall, wide and deep.
  • …need 145yds for the body, 20yds for the eyes/tummy and 36yds for the beak/feet (as well as a few scraps of black fabric and some embroidery thread).
