Amigurumi Crochet Baby Penguin Free Pattern:

Head (using color A)
R1: ch 2, 6 sc in 2^nd ch from hook (6 sts) (you can use the magic ring if you prefer, as it won’t make a difference in the end. In that case, you will make a magic ring and make 6 sc in the magic ring. Watch this video to see how to start crocheting in the round using the “ch 2 method”.)
R2: *inc* rep 6 times (12 sts)
R3: *sc 1, inc* rep 6 times (18 sts)
R4: *sc 2, inc* rep 6 times (24 sts)
R5: *sc 3, inc* rep 6 times (30 sts)
R6: *sc 4, inc* rep 6 times (36 sts)
R7: *sc 5, inc* rep 6 times (42 sts)
R8-15: sc in all 42 sts (8 rounds total at 42 sts each)
R16: *sc 5, dec* rep 6 times (36 sts)
R17: *sc 4, dec* rep 6 times (30 sts)
Switch to color B. Watch this video here to learn how to make the clean edge color change used on R18a and R18.
R18a: in the BLO (back loops only) very loosely slip stitch in all 30 sts (30 sts)
R18: in the BLO (back loops only) *sc 3, dec* rep 6 times (24 sts) (This is the last round we will crochet in the BLO. See pic. #1).

This is a special way of changing colors so that there is a neat, clean edge all around. The slip stitch round (R18a) is not adding any height to the round and is just the foundation for the next round (R18) so we get the clean edge from the bottom loops of the slip stitches. If you wish to do a traditional color change, then disregard R18a.

Adding the Eyes
Insert your safety eyes between R14 & 15, 9 sts apart. (Hint: insert the 1st eye. Count 9 sts from the hole where you inserted the 1st eye and insert the 2nd eye. There should be 7 visible stitches between the
eyes.)
Start to stuff the head firmly continuing to stuff as you work.
R19: *sc 2, dec* rep 6 times (18 sts)
R20: *sc 1, dec* rep 6 times (12 sts)
R21: *dec* rep 6 times (6 sts)
Finish off. Finish stuffing the head firmly, and use the tail to sew up the hole neatly.

Top/Hood (using color B)
R1: ch 2, 6 sc in 2^nd ch from hook (6 sts)
R2: *inc* rep 6 times (12 sts)
R3: *sc 1, inc* rep 6 times (18 sts)
R4: *sc 2, inc* rep 6 times (24 sts)
R5: *sc 3, inc* rep 6 times (30 sts)
R6: *sc 4, inc* rep 6 times (36 sts)
R7: *sc 5, inc* rep 6 times (42 sts)
R8-16: sc in all 42 sts (9 rounds total at 42 sts each)
R17: dc 9, hdc 1, sc 1, sl st 6, sc 1, hdc 1, dc 1, make 2 trc in the next sc, ch 2, sl st in 2^nd ch from hook, make 2 more trc in the the same sc as the last 2 trc, dc 1, hdc 1, sc 1, sl st 6, sc 1, hdc 1, dc 10 (44 sts).
Finish off leaving a long tail for sewing. Position the hood over the head so that the bottom back of the hood is sewn to R18 of the head (R18 of the head is the color change round). This way, the white on the head doesn’t show through. Don’t position it any further down than R18 of the head. The front bottom tip of the hood should come down just slightly below the bottom of the eyes. Pin the hood into place using straight pins, then sew it to the head using the long tail we left and your tapestry needle.

Beak (using color B)
R1: ch 2, 4 sc in 2^nd ch from hook (4 sts)
R2: *sc 1, inc* rep 2 times (6 sts)
R3: sc in all 6 sts (6 sts)
Finish off leaving a long tail for sewing. No need to stuff. Position the beak between the eyes over the tip of the hood and pin it into place (see pic. #4). Sew the beak to the face using the “seamless join method” for a cleaner look.

Body (using color C)
R1: ch 2, 6 sc in 2^nd ch from hook (6 sts)
R2: *inc* rep 6 times (12 sts)
R3: *sc 1, inc* rep 6 times (18 sts)
R4: *sc 2, inc* rep 6 times (24 sts)
R5: *sc 3, inc* rep 6 times (30 sts)
R6-13: sc in all 30 sts (8 rounds total at 30 sts each)
Finish off leaving a long tail for sewing. Stuff firmly and position the body to the bottom of the head over R18 of the head. Make sure that you leave the front loops from R18a of the head showing above the body as we want that color change peeking over the body (see pic. #6). Sew the body to the head using the “seamless join method” for a cleaner look.

Wings (make 2 using color C)
Ch 6, starting in the 3^rd ch from the hook, hdc 3, make 2 hdc in the last ch, turn your piece 180 degrees and in the front loops of the ch, hdc 4 (9 sts)

Finish off leaving a long tail for sewing. We will sew the flat edge of the wings to either side of the body. Sew each wing to the sides of the body to the last round of the body. When you are finished, make a knot to secure the sewing and weave all ends into the body to hide them.

Feet (make 2 using color B)
R1: ch 2, 4 sc in 2^nd ch from hook (4 sts)
R2: *sc 1, inc* rep 2 times (6 sts)
R3: *sc 2, inc* rep 2 times (8 sts)
Do NOT finish off. Do not stuff. Pinch the foot together so that there are 4 sts on one side and 4 sts on the other side. Now, slip stitch the opening closed with your crochet hook going through both front and back single crochet stitches.

Finish off leaving long tail for sewing. Weave the long tail we left to the back top corner of the foot. Position the feet over R6 of the body, spaced 4-5 stitches apart from each other. Sew the feet to the body. When you are finished, make a knot to secure the sewing and weave all ends into the body.

Congratulations !!!

Pom Pom
use red yarn;
This is how I made my pom pom. I know there are many other techniques out there so feel free to experiment with what works best for you!
Wind your red yarn around a piece of cardboard about 1.25” (3cm) wide. (or you could use 2 finger widths, (ie. your index and middle fingers together) The more you wind, the fuller your pom pom will be. When done winding, carefully slide the cardboard out (or your fingers out, depending on what youʼre using) and tie your yarn very tightly around the center of the yarn bundle.
Cut open the loops on each side, and fluff out the pom-pom. Trim evenly if necessary. Use the yarn ends from tying the bundle to pass through the top of the hat, and tie in a knot inside the hat. Weave all yarn ends in neatly.

Assembly
Stuff the head tightly with fiber fill. Take your eye circles and and poke the 12mm eyes through an opening one row away from the center of the eye circle. Now place the eyes and the nose onto the head. If youʼre like me, you will have to play around with the position of these parts until you are satisfied with how everything looks. Take note of the symmetry of the eyes. Since the eyes are not directly in the center of the white eye circles, you have to be careful that the eyes appear to be looking in the same direction. You could end up with one eye thatʼs positioned high and one thatʼs positioned low. Once you are happy with the placement of the eyes and nose, sew each piece on carefully. Affix the backings onto the safety eyes.Next, stuff the body and attach the head. Sew the tummy circle into place. The wings go on next.
They do not need to be stuffed with fiber fill. You can pinch them flat and sew them on as is. Stuff the legs next and attach to the body. Again, take note of the symmetry by pinning them in place first. The penguin should be balanced and able to sit independently when the legs are positioned properly.
Wrap the scarf around the neck and perch the hat on the head!
Ready!

1 rnd: 6 sc in mc
2 rnd: 6 inc (12)
3 rnd: (1 sc, inc)*6 (18)

Beak
Crochet with the orange yarn.
1 rnd: 6 sc in mc

3 rnd: (3 sc, inc)*3 (15)
4 rnd: (3 sc, dec)*3 (12)
Cut the yarn, leaving a long end enough for sewing. Stuff the detail.

Muzzle
Make the tightening for the eyes. To do this mark the points 1 and 3 between the 15 and 16 rows and the points 2 and 4 between the 17 and 18 rows in the immediate vicinity of the eyes (if you use eyes with stalks).
Now insert a needle in the head, fasten off a thread and take it out in the point 1, then insert in the head in the point 2 and take out in the point 3, tighten a thread. Again insert a needle in the head in the point 4 and take it out in the point 1, tighten a thread.
Repeat this action 2-3 times, fasten off, cut a thread and hide inside the head.
Those who will glue the eyes need to mark the points at the same level (the points 1 and 3 between the 15 and 16 rows and the points 2 and 4 between the 17 and 18 rows), the space between them is 8 sc. Do the tightening as described above. The next step is gluing the eyes with the help of a glue gun.
Try on the beak to the head with the help of the pins and sew it between 17th and 22nd row of the head as it is shown at the photo.
Then embroider the whites of the eyes with white thread, the eye-lashes, brows and smile with black thread and cheeks with the red thread.
Place the detail №1 inside of the detail №2 so that the protrusion is on top in the center of the head and sew.
Try on the head to the body and start to sew it. In the course of sewing stuff the neck very tight, so as the head does not dangle because of its heaviness.

Cap
Start with the white yarn
1 rnd: 6 sc in mc.
2 rnd: 6 inc (12)
3 rnd: (3 sc, inc)*3 (15)
4-5 rnd: 15 sc
6 rnd: (3 sc, dec)*3 (12)
7 rnd: 6 dec (6)
Stuff the detail, change the yarn to the red
8-12 rnd: 6 sc
13 rnd: (1 sc, inc)*3 (9)
14 rnd: 9 sc
15 rnd: 1 sc, inc, (2 sc, inc)*2, 1 sc (12)
16 rnd: 12 sc
17 rnd: (3 sc, inc)*3 (15)
18 rnd: 15 sc
19 rnd: 2 sc, inc, (4 sc, inc)*2, 2 sc (18)
20 rnd: 18 sc
21 rnd for the fr lp: 1 sc, inc, (2 sc, inc)*5, 1 sc (24)
Change the yarn to the white Softy. Don’t cut the red thread , leaving a long end enough for sewing.
22 rnd: 24 sc
Cut the yarn, fasten off, hide the end of the thread. Sew the cap to the head as it is shown at the photo.
It’s left to knit the scarf. To do this cast on 6 stitches with the mustard yarn and knit stockinette stitch to the desired length (I have a scarf length of 38 cm).
Tie the scarf to the penguin and admire our handsome!

Little penguin is ready!
