Materials Needed

For this project, you will need:

• Yarn for Frog: Green chunky yarn
• Yarn for Blanket: Cream and light brown yarn (or colors of your choice)
• Crochet Hook: 5 mm
• Stuffing Material: Fiberfill or similar

Gauge

• Gauge is not critical for this project. However, ensure your stitches are tight enough to hold the stuffing securely.

Special Techniques

• Slip Knot: Wrap yarn around two fingers, form an "X," and pull through to create a loop. Tighten by pulling the yarn's long end.
• Single Crochet (sc): Insert hook into stitch, yarn over, and pull through. Yarn over again, then pull through both loops.
• Invisible Decrease (dec): Work only through the outer loops of two stitches, yarn over, pull through both loops.
• 5 Double Crochet (DC) Cluster: Work 5 partial double crochets in the same stitch, keeping only the first pull-through on the hook. Once 6 loops remain, yarn over and pull through all loops.
• Embroidery: Use a needle to add a simple smiling face to the frog.
