Tux from Linux

In 2019, I published this pattern using the name Evelina Del Bosque on Ravelry. I realised that I make a lot of mistakes in the old pattern. Now I improved the pattern and republished it. Hope you like the new version!

Materials

Yarns:

- White: head, body and eyes

- Black: head, body, wings, eyes and tail

- Yellow: beak and feet

Yarn weight is not very important, but please choose the hook accordingly.

I used Catona cotton from Scheepjes (which is 50 grams - 125 m) with a 2.5 mm hook. The end product is around 8*7*7 cm big.

Please note that by using thicker yarn and a bigger crochet hook, your end product will be bigger than mine. You can also create a smaller product by using thinner yarn and a smaller crochet hook.

For stuffing:

You can use the polyfill or any other type of filling you like.

Abbreviations

Rnd = round

ch = chain

st = stitch

ss = slip stitch

sc = single crochet

bbs =basic five-stitch bobble stitch*

dec = decrease by sc 2 together

inc = increase by sc 2 in one st

‘...” = the part you need to repeat


* How to crochet bbs: 

  1. On a wrong-side row, work to the position of the bobble. Wrap the yarn over the hook, work the first stitch, and skip the last stage to leave two loops on the hook.

  2. Work the second and third stitches in the same way. You now have four loops on the hook.

  3. Work the remaining two stitches of the bobble in the same way, so you end up with six loops on the hook.

  4. Wrap the yarn over the hook and draw it through all six loops to secure them and complete the bobble. You may find it helpful to gently poke the bobble through to the right side with the tip of one finger as you draw the securing loop through.

  5. Continue along the row, working bobbles as required. When working the following right-side row, take care to work one stitch into the securing stitch at the top of each bobble.
