The Penguin Bean pattern is a cute and quick pattern for knitters of all levels. If you are a beginner, this is a good pattern to practice knitting in the round and duplicate stitch. If you are an intermediate or advanced knitter, you’ll be able to make a cute animal from start to finish in just a few hours.

This pattern calls for sport weight yarn. I recommend Wool of the Andes to get nice, life-like colours. You’ll need just 1/5th of a skein of MC and 1-2 yards of each CC.

Gauge is not important, just be sure that your knitting is snug so that the stuffing does not spill out.

This pattern is part of my collection of Winter Beans. You can purchase the collection of 10 animals for half the price of buying them individually.
