How’s it done?

1. Start with a magic circle and crochet six single stitches to form the base for the frog.
2. Gradually increase stitches in each row to shape the body, ensuring smooth transitions and symmetry.
3. Use green yarn to crochet arms and legs, following the process of increasing and decreasing stitches.
4. Create white and green circles for the frog’s eyes, attaching them securely to the body.
5. Stitch the mouth and facial details, maintaining balance and alignment for a pleasant expression.
6. Assemble all parts carefully, adding final touches like stuffing and securing threads for a neat finish.
