Video I followed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-w6X1n3b2s&t=87s
Beginner Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Duration: ~2 hours
What I learned
- Single crochet technique (SC)
- Simple chain stitch
- Bobble stitch (BO) to shape the frog’s eyes
Struggles
- I was a little confused at round 1 when she said “9sc in front and back loop” but eventually figured it out
- Didn’t know how to bobble stitch, so I learnt something new!
- You can watch this to learn the bobble stitch: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/bb2nmzSEP-Q (Here she did a 5dc bobble stitch, the frog just needs 4dc)
Thoughts
I don’t know why the limbs of my frog are extra curly, but its goofier that way.
Also, in the video, she used safety eyes which are those plastic circles for its eyes. But I don’t have those, and used black yarn instead.
Materials I used:
- 3.0mm hook
- 4-ply cotton yarn
- Stitch marker (or a paper clip/ safety pin is fine)
- Stuffing
- Scissors
- Stitch needle
