What perfect wintery fun it is to whip up a penguin on your looms for the winter! No need to travel to Antarctica. This little guy is created with plushy yarn and special shaping which forms his sleek silhouette without any fussing.

Materials

Knitting Loom
The Martha Stewart Crafts Knit and Weave Loom was used for the sample. The sections which create a “D” shape of 26 large gauge pegs were used, while skipping every other hole.

To create this penguin on a similar loom, you would need a large gauge loom of at least 26 pegs. The Knifty Knitter pink or yellow long looms, with added loom clips, are recommended as alternatives.

Yarn
44 yards each of Super Bulky #6 in two penguin colors; Luxe Fur by Lion Brand in charcoal and ivory were used in sample.

Approx 75 yards of Worsted Weight #4 in feet/beak color; approx 1/2 skein of Vanna’s Choice by Lion Brand in mustard was used in sample.

Approx 20 yards of Worsted Weight #4 in flipper color; approx 1/8th skein of Vanna’s Choice by Lion Brand in dark grey heather was used in sample.
