King Penguin and Chick

£37.00

Make your own adorable King Penguin and baby with this crochet kit! Not to be confused with the Emperor Penguin, the King Penguin is the second largest species of penguin. This flightless bird is known for its huge colonies where you can find up to 100,000 breeding pairs – and their chicks look distinctively different to those of their cousins, covered with dark brown feathers rather than a silvery-grey down.

This cute crochet project forms part of our Edward's Menagerie collection of amigurumi crochet toys designed by Kerry Lord. This amigurumi crochet animal kit contains our luxurious pure wool DK yarn and an easy-to-follow downloadable pattern with video links for all the techniques.

THIS KIT CONTAINS: 150g of TOFT's luxury DK pure wool in the following colours.
25g Steel
25g Cream
25g Yellow
25g Black
25g Fudge
25g Cocoa

The crochet pattern is provided digitally in .pdf format. You can download this from a link that will appear at the bottom of your order confirmation email and in your MY TOFT library. You can log in and re-download the pattern at your convenience.

YOU WILL NEED: To complete your King Penguin and Chick you will need a few added extras including a 3mm crochet hook, toy stuffing, Black yarn for facial features and a wool needle. Find everything you need in our haberdashery section.
