Ever since I created my first youtube video, I've been trying to come up with more beginner-friendly patterns, so after a lot of crocheting and FROGGING (hehe get it?), I came up with these NO-SEW froggies!
Like my mini mushroom pattern, you can use thicker yarn to create bigger frogs using this pattern! Like the one I made here:
Or you can turn them into keychains! I made this set for me and my boyfriend using size 3, DK yarn :)
These frogs are super easy and quick to make. If you're fast enough, you can make one in less than 30 minutes! But just another warning, you might find yourself with another mini army.
Materials:
Worsted-weight yarn in colors: green and cream
2.75 mm hook
3 mm safety eyes
Glue
Black embroidery thread
Scissors
Yarn and sewing needles
Stuffing
Stitch marker (I use paperclips!)
Sewing pins
