Pattern Details

This pattern uses a 50 × 50 bead grid with 1,137 beads and 19 listed colors. It is marked as Medium difficulty.

How-To and Use Case Notes

How-To: Start by laying out the thick black outline to establish the penguin's body shape and the heart. Fill in the large solid sections like the white belly, dark grey body, and red heart. Use a pair of tweezers for the multicolored party hat, as the changing colors can be tricky. When ironing, apply even heat so the polka dots on the heart and the small blush cheeks fuse securely to the surrounding beads.
Use Case: Makes an adorable desk display, a cute Valentine's or birthday gift, or a fun refrigerator magnet if you glue a magnet to the back.

FAQ

Do I need a large pegboard for this pattern?

Yes, because of the wide heart and the tall party hat, you will likely need a standard large square pegboard or two interlocking boards to fit the entire design.

How should I handle the small details like the cheeks and hat pattern?

Using fine-tipped tweezers will help you precisely place the individual pink blush beads and the alternating colors on the plaid party hat without knocking over nearby beads.
