Meet Kevin, the perfect crochet penguin to be right by your side through good times and bad. Just because our amigurumi penguin measures about 5 inches doesn’t mean that it can’t be a big part of everything you do, in fact, it means quite the opposite. Crochet it today with our step-by-step pattern!
To crochet this amigurumi penguin you need:
- Super fine 100% acrylic yarn (200 m / 50 g) in blue, white, yellow, and orange colors
- 2.0 mm crochet hook
- Fiberfill
- 9 mm safety eyes
- Scissors and sewing needle
Skill level: intermediate
The finished amigurumi penguin is about 12 cm (4.7″) tall. Please pay attention that the size of your crochet toy depends on yarn weight and hook size.

I love all your amigurumi patterns.thanks for sharing it with me.i love crocheting.
Thank you! 🙂
this is fab!
I think the instructions for the headphones might be incomplete? The picture has 7 rows but the instructions only has 4 (and mind are very small!). Presumably it is carry on increasing on the same basis until row 6 and then row 7 is just all sc?
Thanks!
