I'm gonna make a million more then try to tackle more of your designs! Wish me luck!

Thank you for your beautiful video. ❤❤

Alr that’s just for my personal use to have the written pattern next to the video, just copied&pasted the site 😅 Body: Using Blue R1: 7 SC in a MR R2: [INC] x 7 (14) R3: [SC, INC] x 7 (21) R4: [2 SC, INC] x 7 (28) R5: 28 SC (28) R6: [3 SC, INC] x 7 (35) For rounds 7 to 16, we will be changing color within the rounds to the belly color. If you need more help with changing color please refer to the penguin tutorial or my changing color tutorial (method 1). R7: 14 SC in blue, 2 SC in white, 3 SC in blue, 2 SC in white, 14 SC in blue (35) R8: 13 SC in blue, 4 SC in white, 1 SC in blue, 4 SC in white, 13 SC in blue (35) R9-10: 12 SC in blue, 11 SC in white, 12 SC in blue (35) 2 Rounds R11-12: 12 SC in blue, 12 SC in white, 11 SC in blue (35) 2 Rounds R13-14: 12 SC in blue, 13 SC in white, 10 SC in blue (35) 2 Rounds R15: 13 SC in blue, 11 SC in white, 11 SC in blue (35) R16: 14 SC in blue, 9 SC in white, 12 SC in blue (35) The beginning of the next round forms the tail. R17:[SL ST, CH 1, DC] in FLO of the first stitch. [DC, CH 1, SL ST] in FLO of the second stitch. Make 1 SC in the third stitch. Make 1 DEC (combining the fourth and fifth stitch). [3 SC, DEC] x 6 for the rest of the round. For more clarification on R17, please refer to the video tutorial at timestamp: 43:40 R18:[ 2 SC, DEC] x 7 (21) *Please note that the first 2 SC of R18 are made in the 2 leftover back loops of Round 16 (beneath the tail, not on top of the stitches that form the tail in R17) Attach the eyes between rounds 9 and 10 with each eye centered to each triangle shape on the face. Using yellow, sew on the beak between rounds 10 and 11 (or one row beneath the eyes) and two stitches wide. Begin stuffing.

Feet: (Make 2) Using Yellow 6 SC in a MR FO leaving a long tail for sewing. Make 2 Assembly: If you need more clarification on assembly, please visit 1:05:50 of the video tutorial. Flippers Do not stuff the flippers. Sew them on flat. Sew the flippers onto each side between rounds 10 and 11. They should start where the white meets the blue of the body. Optional: Sew down the second to bottom rows of the flippers as well to have them lay more flatly to the body. Feet Sew the feet between rounds 17 and 18 (or one row beneath where the white meets the blue). Each outer corner of the feet should start one stitch to the side of where the white ends on Round 16 of the body. If you need more clarification on how to attach the feet, please visit 1:09:16 of the video tutorial.

[@AnnchenPretorius]

This was such a lovely tutorial and you make it very easy for someone like me that has never crocheted before.

[@JDlikowich]

Amazing and super easy to follow tutorial! I love it.

These are adorable. I have made so many fun penguins! I just can’t keep them as my kids keep stealing them for themselves and friends. Thank you for this great pattern

[@kdkeely05]

This is a great tutorial! I have never crocheted anything and yours is the first video I found that makes me feel like I can actually do this! Got my magic circle on the third try, can’t wait to have penguins in so many colors ❤❤ Thank you for these videos!

[@jillianscorfna300]

This is absolutely the best tutorial ever. Very easy to follow you step by step. Thank you so much ❤

[@willowwalter2012]

Hi Mary, I love your videos so much I had no idea how to make any crochet animals, but you helped me make my very first one.

[@themaryjay]

Aww that means so much to me! I'm so happy that my videos were helpful to you :)

[@meghana8709]

Hi Mary, I have started making the penguin and it is midway through, and I must say, this is the easiest tutorial ever. Just one suggestion, it would be of great help if you could add the time stamp of each round so that it's easier to navigate.

[@myaisfine]

A little late but she put timestamps in the description ❣️.( edit: just for different body parts)

[@sadie_xxo]

I just made the CUTEST pink penguin ever!! it’s huge as well😍😍 thank you so much for this tutorial, it was so easy to follow. I am gifting this to my teacher Thank you!!!!!

[@mati5185]

Haha what are the odds. I made a penguin for my teacher too (Black though). Im making a pink one right now and wondering what color did you use for the beak and feet?

[@sadie_xxo]

Ahh!!! That’s so cute💞 I did the feet and beak yellow, and it looks really cute with the baby pink yarn I used I hope your teacher loves it💖

[@mati5185]

@sadie_xxo wondering if an orange like she used for the black one will work.. what do you think

[@sadie_xxo]

Orange would be cute!! Definitely try both. Just compare the yellow ones and the oranges ones against the penguin and see which one looks better 💖💖I don’t have any orange so I had to use yellow but it still turned out adorable

[@velzysun4790]

So cute! Can't wait to make it!!

@@nargon5047 for row 3 it’s 1 single crochet in the first stitch then 2 double crochet in the second stitch then one double crochet in the 3 stitch and 2 double crochet in the 4th stitch and so on hope this makes it clearer

[@PiccoloPhoenix]

My only problem is I'm not used to working with plush yarn - I can do velvet but the plush is blowing my brain a bit and I can't see the stitches as easily (don’t ask how I can do velvet - I'm just as confused by this). I'm thinking I should've maybe used a baby plush rather than diving straight into big plush. Either way, this tutorial has been incredibly helpful! Just getting to the color changes - I think it'll be adorable once I get it all together. It's definitely been some learning curves/hurdles to jump over.

[@SarahMcIntyre-q2w]

You do so good

[@urfavgigi43]

hey! will my penguin turn out good if my yarn is slightly thinner then yours? i have a chunky yarn but it’s slightly thinner then yours. do you thing it will turn out right?

Sure that would be awesome. Thanks.

[@froggywoggykindafoggy]

Hey!! Do you think the pattern is suitable if it’s made using medium yarn or cotton yarn?

[@themaryjay]

I haven't tried it but I believe so! Most patterns can be made with different yarn sizes! Just make sure your hook size matches the yarn :)

[@melissastewart5838]

What about when the project starts to swirl with the circle?

[@CaptainChip78]

How much of wool is needed in grams? haven't watched yet but need to order wool first ! super excited to start!!!!

[@knowledgebank9115]

I think 100 grams is enough. By the time I finished my penguin with a 100g skein I had only 2 foot long leftover blue yarn so it is sufficient

[@annausten3039]

Will it work if I use this pattern, but no color change, to make a dog? I can make ears etc. to add to it. I can't find a pattern for a dog for my grandbaby.

[@mydiem3465]

So cute ❤

[@SkzBerriesAllAroundTheWorld]

Why isnt mine curling up:(

[@JustAFanGirl671]

Might be that you two are using different types of yarn so it will take longer for yours to curl up.

[@bigzaria]

Hello! I was wondering if the 72 yard bernat baby blanket yarn would be enough for the blue color on the penguin

[@themaryjay]

Hmm unfortunately I'm not sure! I didn't measure when I made this! I definitely used way less than my 220 yard skein but I'm not sure if 72 is enough honestly. I'm sorry that I couldn't be more help!
