Lion Brand has a lot of great  patterns for free. I really liked their Owl Bib www.lionbrand.com/patterns/90157AD.html but I decided to change it up a bit so all I did was change the colors of the yarn and add a couple of more rows to make it a little longer. What it turned out to be was a Penguin Bib.

What You'll Need:

What you'll need is:
1. The pattern www.lionbrand.com/patterns/90157AD.html
2. Vanna's Choice Black Yarn
3. Vanna's Choice White Yarn
4. Orange Yarn
5. Crochet Hook - Size G-6
6. Stitch Markers
7. Large-Eye Blunt Needle
