This charming Penguin Hat is just the thing to keep you warm and adventurous as the seasons change. Add a little whimsy to your day or let your kids transform into a penguin for the afternoon. Pattern includes several sizes. Baby, Toddler, Sm Adult, and Lg Adult. Knit one for everyone in your family! Or try the matching Bear Hat and Fox Hat in my store.

I have made these using both Red Heart Soft and Caron Simply Soft yarns in worsted weight and both work well. I use size 7 (4.5mm) needles, but I am a tight knitter, so you may need to go down a size to achieve the proper gauge.

Pattern includes four sizes. Baby (6m-12m), Toddler (12m-3yrs), Sm Adult, and Lg Adult. For children older than 3, make the small adult size.

Update: I just tested this with Knit Pick’s Brava Worsted and it works great!
