Only average
Too small and difficult to work in black yarn. Needed better quality photos.
TINY PENGUINS: These little penguins ate very quick and easy to knit and every one will have its own character with a different facial expression. They are the perfect size to decorate the Christmas tree and pop into Christmas crackers.
SIZE: 5cm (2in).
NEEDLES: Pair of 2.75mm needles (US 2).
YARN: Very small amounts of double knitting yarn in black, white and golden yellow. (US use light worsted, Australia 8 ply)

Straightforward pattern to follow made easier by not having to use different coloured yarns at the same time
Made five penguins. Made a green scarf for one of the penguins and a red one for another. Placed them all in a snowflake organza bag and they look so cute. All ready for Christmas as a sweet little stocking-filler. Just as a bonus, the penguins actually stand really well. Lots of fun.
Quick to knit using up scraps of wool. I placed one on a snowball which contained a chocolate orange instead of a robin
Easy to read and made three
Have not yet used the knitting pattern - but looks very easy to follow
