Penguin

Once again, there aren't any Holidays Around the World today so we're going back to penguins. I'd like to introduce you guys to two artist today who just so happens to have a penguin related item in their deviantART gallery. First up is muddypajamas with her clay pot:

Muddypajamas is great at drawing and you guys should check her work out. Next up is kichihayashi with her crocheted penguin:
This one I want so bad...it looks sooo cuddly. Now kichihayashi is good at drawing too but I just love her crochet work. She even posted a link to what pattern she used however, you havta be a member to see it. It looks free but I'm not sure since I didn't register for it...I don't even know how to crochet so there's really no point for me. However, if you ever make an extra penguin crochet, you should send it to me. I'll even dedicate a whole post for you if you do :)
