Tux The Linux Penguin Amigurumi Free Crochet Pattern

Hello amigurumi lovers and beautiful visitors, I wanted to share the free amigurumi patterns for you here. In my article I will share 1 pattern and how to make it for you. At the end of my article, I will share amigurumi patterns that can generate ideas for you.


Supplies:
4mm crochet hook, 4/Medium weight yarn in black, white, yellow, and (optional) red for the scarf. 9mm safety eyes, tapestry needle, scissors, and stuffing.

Additional Information:
Difficulty: Easy
This pattern makes a cute penguin “Tux”! We start with the eye whites, which we will insert into the head while making it. Next, we make the head, then work into the body. They are one piece. We then make the beak, chest piece, arms, and feet. The feet are made by creating 3 toes for each foot, then crocheting the 3 toes together to form the foot. Finally, we make the optional scarf. Done!

Eye Whites: (Make 2)

In White

We make these first, because we will insert safety eyes into them, then place the eyes on the body before closing the body.

Finish off. Add safety eye in the bottom area of the oval. Don’t put on safety eye washer/back yet.
