PENGA is a playful penguin - perfect for hugging!

Ideal for toddlers’ hands and as part of your tinatoys collection.

All tinatoys are based on the same body pattern - so once you have made one it’s easy to make another!

Double Knit. One 50g ball should make two tinatoys. We recommend choosing a wool that is machine-washable.

You will need main yarn for body face and wings with a contrasting colour and/or texture for head, beak, tail, and feet. (We used Wendy Peter Pan Cupcake Blackjack as the main yarn, grey DK 2nd yarn for head, beak, tail, and feet.)

As the colours and textures are similar, you can make Lammy and Penga bodies from a single 50g ball e.g. Blackjack, using the same contrasting grey DK 2nd yarn. (Lammy can also be made entirely of Blackjack.)

Small amount of yarn for eyes (we used blue).

Stuffing: Toy stuffing

Ribbon: for bow (we used red)

Knitting needles: one pair UK size 11; USA size 2; Europe size 3.0.

Darning needle.
