I’ve been surrounded with dolly clothes and pieces of yet more knitted toys over the past few days. I’m going a bit crazy, perhaps, and might have to add a green peaked hat and shoes with bells to my wardrobe. Anyway, I also thought it was about time for a little pre-holiday goodie for you guys, my lovely readers, who come and visit and write sweet comments. You may or may not remember that last year I had the opportunity to teach a craft workshop at the December Bazaar Bizarre San Francisco, on how to make these little guys

Sadly this year Baz Biz is just a few days from my due date, so I don’t know if I’ll even be able to make it to the show, let alone teach anything! Anyway, I thought those of you who weren’t at the workshop last December might to make a penguin yourselves. Last year I added a jingle bell, a tiny red scarf and a hanging loop to the wee penguin to make them into Christmas ornaments for a swap.

Pop over to the Tiny Penguin Tutorial page to download the pattern and instructions, and find a link to step by step photos if anything seems confusing! I hope you enjoy it and that you’ll let me know if you make one– I’d love to see yours.
