I spent almost a week creating this pattern, constantly redoing and refining it because I wanted the pattern to have as few stitches as possible while still being super cute. So, my baby penguin version is a fast amigurumi project that can be made in under 1 hour. It&#8217;s only 17 rounds, and the largest diameter is only 30 stitches. My daughter loves them so much that she wants me to make several more in different colors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Baby Penguin Amigurumi Crochet Pattern by Effi GratiaProject.com<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Notes:<br><\/strong>&#8211; Pattern is working continuously in the round.<br>&#8211; Use stitch marker to mark first stitch in a round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>* Some links may be affiliate links which will allow me to make a commission for purchases made through the following link.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Materials:<br><\/strong>Soft cotton yarn 5 ply, color black, yellow, and white<br>Safety eyes size 6mm<br>Polyester fiber<br>Crochet hook size 3.5mm<br>Stitch marker:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2wwH8mh\">Clover Needlecraft Split Ring Markers<\/a><br>Tapestry needle<br>Scissors<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>ABBREVIATIONS (US Crochet Terms)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">st(s): stitch(es)<br>sl st: slip stitch<br>MR: Magic Ring<br>R: Round<br>ch: chain<br>sc: single crochet<br>sc3tog: single crochet 3 stitches together, or decrease 3 stitches into 1 stitch.&nbsp;<br>[#]: number of stitch(es) in a round<br>inc: increase (make 2 sc in the same space)<br>dec: decrease (sc2tog) &#8211; use Invisible Decrease for better result.
