I started with the penguin pattern from the Lion Brand website. Then I figured if I tweaked it a little I could make other animals. I think it's a cute pattern. My mom likes owls so I'm always trying to find a new pattern. I've made her at least ten different owls so far!

I just finished this frog pillow today. I'm excited because it's my first crochet project with this many parts!

The pattern is in Annie's Crochet Newsletter No. 21 for May-June 1986. My mom had some of them from when she did a lot of crocheting.
