Penguin Chocolate Orange Cover Knitting Pattern PDF

Pip the Penguin: a black hood with a heart-shaped white face, black eyes, an orange beak, pink cheeks, a green scarf band and a red pompom on the drawstring.

A knitted cover that hugs a standard 157 g chocolate orange: a cosy little gift, stocking filler or Secret Santa treat.

The cover is knitted in the round from the bottom up: a flat base disc, 20 charted rounds of stranded colourwork, an eyelet round, rib and an i-cord drawstring.
