FINISHED SIZE
he finished height of the frog amigurumi is 7 inches. Keep your tension tight and consistent to avoid
stuffing showing through. My finished crochet frog is 7 inches long when using a 2.75 mm hook and
Ricorumi Cotton DK yarn. You can use other hook and yarn combinations to make your frog amigurumi
bigger or smaller. Just make sure your stitches are tight to avoid stuffing showing through. Check out
this blog post to learn about yarn and hook exchanges to change the size of your amigurumi.

When crocheting into a chain, I crochet into the back bump of the chain. If you’re not familiar with
crocheting in the back bump of chain stitches, check out this blog post.
For attaching pieces, I use the seamless join method from Planet June.
EYE 1
- • • Work into back bump of chain stitches and then, when you turn to work down other side of
chain, work into front and back loop of chain stitches. • • •
rnd 1: Ch 4, sc 1 into 2nd ch st from hook, sc 1, sc 3 into next ch st, turn to work down other side of ch,
sc 1, inc 1 (8 sts)
rnd 2: [sc 3, inc 1] 2x (10 sts)
rnd 3: sc 2, inc 1, sc 4, inc 1, sc 1, sl st 1 (12 sts)
Fasten off, leaving a 15-inch tail for attaching. Weave in and cut beginning yarn tail. Set aside until after
eye 2 is made.
EYE 2
Repeat rnds 1-3 from Eye 1, don’t fasten off. Remove stitch marker.
- • • WEAVE IN OR CUT YARN TAILS (EXCEPT WORKING YARN) BEFORE CONTINUING. • • •
HEAD/BODY
rnd 1: Connecting the eyes. See photos for reference.
step 1: ch 4
step 2: making sure the chain isn’t twisted between eyes and the tops of both eyes are facing down, sl st 1 into last s
step 3: sc 1, place stitch marker (this will mark the first stitch of your rounds going forward), sc 11 around eye 1
step 4: sc 4 into back bump of ch sts
step 5: sc 12 around eye 2
tep 6: sc 4 into top of ch sts (32 sts)
rnd 2: sc 4, inc 3, sc 13, inc 3, sc 9 (38 sts)
rnd 3: sc 7, inc 1, [sc 4, inc 1, sc 4] 2x, inc 1, sc 11 (42 sts)
rnds 4-9: sc around (42 sts for 6 rnds)
- • • MAKE FACE NOW • • •
Use the picture above as a guide for placement. First, insert the safety eyes between rnds 2 and 3 of
eye pieces. After attaching the backing of the safety eye, I used a strong scissor to cut off most of the
back post so it would fit in the eye piece. Using lightweight white yarn or embroidery floss and
embroidery needle, add 2 long stitches to the right side of each eye as an accent. Using lightweight
black yarn or embroidery floss and embroidery needle, make two small vertical stitches at the center of
the face for the nose holes. The mouth is made with 2 long horizontal stitches that meet in the center of
the face. You can also use blush and a small brush or cotton bud to apply blushy cheeks above the
frog’s mouth!

Sl st 1 into next st. Fasten off and cut yarn, leaving a 16-inch yarn tail for closing ending hole and
making butt crack. Don’t close opening yet! See steps 5-8 of the photo tutorial below to finish Frog’s
little butt
MAKING THE BUTT
Time to make those sweet cheeks! Fancy Frog’s butt is easily formed using the yarn tail and 2 small
balls of toy stuffing. The photo tutorial below will show you how to do it!
step 1: after completing rnd 25 of frog, form 2 small balls of stuffing about 1.5 inches in diameter for the cheeks.
step 2: on side opposite face, insert stuffing ball into opening for first cheek.
step 3: press ball into stitches to slightly stretch out cheek and make it more pronounced.
step 4: repeat on other side to make 2 butt cheeks. Finish stuffing the frog. Complete rnds 27-29 of frog before movin
step 5: finish off your piece by sewing the last rnd closed. Insert threaded tapestry needle through center of hole and
between sts under rnd 17, between stuffing balls.
step 6: Make a long line with yarn tail to make butt crack, inserting your needle between sts under rnd 28.
step 7: bring needle through another part of frog’s body and pull yarn tail tightly so the butt crack is defined between t
step 8: weave the yarn tail through several stitches on 2 rnds of the frog to make it extra secure. Then bring yarn tail
again and cut yarn tail close to body.

TOADSTOOL HAT
The Toadstool Hat is made using red and white yarn. Change yarn to white for 1 stitch to make a spot. I
didn’t detail where to place the white spots on your Toadstool Hat as I just sprinkled them randomly
throughout each round – making each hat unique! I placed white spots from rnds 2-9 of my hat, keeping
rnds 1 and 10 just red.
