Smaller frog
Small Frog
Frog measures about 7 inches tall!
Supplies needed:
G Hook
Small amounts of WW yarn
Stitch marker or safety pin
Buttons for eyes (optional)
Terms used
Sc = single crochet
Sc-dec = single crochet decrease over 2 stitches
Ch = chain
FO = Finish off, or Fasten off
Please note!!!
The frog is done in a continous spiral.(unless other wise noted) I would suggest using a stitch marker or a safety pin to mark your place
Another tip: when you start the body, you will be working from the bottom up. If after a few rounds, there is holes in the bottom, you can use the beginning tail to sew them shut a bit.
I get asked, why doesn’t my “ --------------†(fill in the blank) look like yours??
One of the easiest things to do, pin before sewing. I make up the entire head, and eyes first. Using sewing straight pins (or longer needles) pin the eyes onto the head. Make sure you like where they are first before sewing. Play around with the placement to see what you like. Do this will all your work. It will make a huge difference!
