Beginner Tips for Success

Start with the body first: The round, soft body is the simplest section—warm up your stitches here, and the hat details will feel easy once you get to them.
Stuff the hat pom-pom lightly: Don’t overstuff the tiny pom-pom—light, even filling keeps it soft and fluffy, instead of being stiff and hard.
Reference the photo guide: The close-up stitch photos are there to help whenever you’re unsure, especially for the hat stitching step—they show exactly how to attach the hat so it sits straight on the penguin’s head.
Weave in ends as you go: This saves so much time at the end! With the multiple small pieces, you’ll have a few small ends, so weave them in as you finish each piece, instead of leaving them all for last.
Take it slow: There’s no rush! Crochet should be relaxing, so take breaks whenever you need to, and enjoy the process, the hat is a simple pattern, so you’ll master it in no time.
