Make this cute, jolly penguin bauble to hang on your Christmas tree or give as a festive gift. Perfect as a stocking filler!

The penguin pictured in this pattern was made using dark grey yarn to make it easier to see the stitches in the images. If you’d prefer a black and white penguin, just substitute dark grey yarn for black.

The finished bauble pictured in this pattern measures approximately 6cm in diameter and was made with 100% cotton DK yarn and a 3.5mm crochet hook. If you’d like to make a larger version, use thicker yarn and/or a larger hook, or a smaller version with thinner yarn and/or a smaller hook.
