Penguin Face
The penguin face and body are half spheres, so I started with a magic circle to make them round up. The decreases at the end round the sphere back down. Since they are done in rows, you will always be doing the first sc in the first stitch.
You will be carrying the black and white yarns on the back of the penguin head and body.
