Make your very own crochet colony of penguins with TOFT’s  latest website update. This Valentines were celebrating with hugs, kisses, and ….huddles! Did you know that a group of penguins can also be called a 'huddle', 'waddle' or even a 'raft' if it's in the water?

You can crochet your own family of penguins with adorable new #edsbirds projects and a ‘huddle of penguins’ yarn bundle with patterns for five adult penguins and three chicks.

Synonymous with teamwork and strong partnership, these beautiful birds make the perfect present for a loved one, as well as being a challenge for your crochet hook. If you’ve not made an #edsbirds design before, or you’re new to complex colour work then check out Kerry’s video tutorials for tips and tricks on achieving the best finish to your feathered friends. 

 

Make your own adorable baby Emperor Penguin with this crochet kit! Possibly the most famous chicks of all species of penguin, the Emperor Penguin chick is known for its silvery-grey down feathers and striking facial markings and groups together in 'crèches' as it grows older.	This adorable yarn bundle includes the wool and patterns to make five adult penguins and three chicks, with a saving of £20!	Based on the world's smallest species of penguin, Ariki the Little Blue Penguin stands at just 18cm tall (only slightly smaller than his real life counterparts!). Also known as the 'fairy penguin' or 'korora', this flightless bird is native to New Zealand's mainland and its surrounding islands.
