We are beginning to crochet the face from the next row on.
Note: when the pattern indicates color change it is important to remember that the change is
always to start from the previous stitch (the last two loops of the previous stitch on the hook are
to be crocheted with the new color.
I leave the yarn that is not in use behind the detail. Whet its time comes I take it again and
move it over the internal part of the detail just before the moment of the color change. To avoid
holes in the detail that could appear when changing colors you could arrange the yarn not in
use on the wrong/internal side of the detail and fix it with 2-3 sc so that the yarn not in use at
this moment remains in place and does not get loops.
Pay attention that the yarn not in use at this moment should remain rather loose. Otherwise
when you start inserting the filling into the head it might make the face scrunched.

Assembling of the toy
Pull down the collar of the sweater as far as possible so you can well see the last row of the body to which we are going to attach the head, fix the collar with the sewing pins. Pay attention that the markers of the beginning of the row of the head and that of the body remain in the center of the back. Fix the head onto the body with the help of yarn and needle and attach it sewing in the round.
To attach the head sew together the 18 crochets of the last rows of the head and body. In the process add stuffing to the neck if needed.
Pull the collar up and attach the wings to the 29th row of the body with the help of the sewing pins. Attach the wings sewing in the round taking the stitches of the wing and body in turns. First attach the upper part of the wing and then raise the wing and attach the lower part to the 28th row of the body.
Steam iron through a damp cloth the wings at the seam level to the body so that they do not
stick out.
Pin on the beak at 13th and 14th row level. It should be fitted over the two rows max. To sew the beak on please use sewing thread so that the seams do not appear coarse. The eyes are to be sewn or glued on between the 12th and 13th rows at 4 sc distance.
Pin on the penguin feet as shown in the photo. Use sewing thread of similar color to attach the feet.
Begin attaching the feet at the lateral part then go to the heel an finish at the other side of the foot. Pull the foot back as shown in the photo and attach it to the front part of the body.
Put some blusher on the penguin’s cheeks.
That is all as for the penguin. Now we can do something about a fashionable hat!
