Notes

Making this for Consuelo @gattimisfatti’s birthday on IG:

Used 2.5mm hook for legs
Legs:
Starting in red for R1-3, as per pattern.

R4: sc1, (ch4, starting in 2nd ch from hook sc3 back, UK tr into 1st ch, sl st the top of the both sides, sc2) x2

R5 is trickier after the way I did the ch/sc, so I had to just make sure there were 5sc sts (I ended up missing out the ‘finger’ sts and doing a dec between fingers)

R6: red

Change colour for R7

Used pipe cleaners for legs. Positioned the back legs a a bit higher (looked at photos of frogs online here):

It might be small, but it still took approx 5 hrs to crochet. I did faff around making sure the legs were around the pipecleaners the right way.

After I put the buttons on, the ends of the black wool were on the top of the head and looked quite cute, so I added a bit more.
.
Tried to time this on RowCounterApp: 4:47:18 (not sure quite how accurate this is)
.
Starting with /Ending with:
60g/53g green mix Marble
9g dusky pink DK
61g/60g (or 62g/61g incl label) peony
