RE: PENGUIN AMIGURUMI, FREE PATTERN / AMIGURUMI DE PINGÜINO, PATRÓN GRATIS! [ENG/ESP]

He looks cute. I also wanted to make a penguin but postponed since designing a pattern for it will take time. Is this your own pattern?

Sort:  

Normally I like to mix patterns, I think this penguin has the body from one pattern and head and feet from another. I do that because sometimes it's hard to find that one pattern that you like it all or you know how to crochet all the stitches and also I'm still learning, I just been crocheting for about a month or so.
Have a lovely day <3🙂

Got it. when mixing patterns it is good be careful, unless if the sizes didn't match, the toy will turn out to be something we don't expect. In the white circular part of the peng body, I have noticed holes among stitches. it will look more beautiful if you can use a hook like 3.0mm next time. I am just suggesting my idea for you 🤗.

I am normally using 2.0mm hook for 3ply acrylic yarn. when my stitches are tight, my filling doesn't comes out 😁. so the finishing looks good.

Thanks for the tips!! I'll try next time, I was using the 3,5mm because sometime stitches get really tight and I can barelly put the kneedle inside but I take it for the next one and tell you how it went haha
thanks <3

yeah it is bit hard at the beginning. I was also practicing with 3.5 when I started. then I changed into 3.0 and then to 2.0.
