A4 PDF: materials, every round with a tick box, assembly and face

Free crochet sleepy frog pattern: a Sleepy Frog Bean amigurumi, about 9 cm tall in DK yarn with a 2.5 mm hook. A wide green bean of a frog with closed sleeping eyes, pink cheeks, a calm smile and a blue-and-white striped nightcap with a pompom. You need about 55 m of yarn: 35 m green, 10 m blue, 5 m white and 5 m pink. Plan on roughly 2 hours. A snoozy desk buddy or a bedtime gift for frog and sleep lovers. Turn the 3D model around to see the nightcap from every side and follow the round-by-round pattern.

  22. Size before assembly: about 8 cm at the widest, 5.8 cm long; 25 rounds.
  23. → Start stuffing (firmly) and keep adding as you decrease.
  24. Press the piece flat to about 7.4 cm thick (oval cross-section).<!-- press the piece flat by 8 % --> Top up the stuffing if needed. Fasten off leaving a 15 cm tail; with the needle weave it through the front loops of all 6 stitches of the last round, pull tight and hide the end inside.

  7. Size before assembly: about 1.6 cm at the widest, 2.8 cm long; 8 rounds.
  8. → Start stuffing (firmly) and keep adding as you decrease.
  9. Top up the stuffing if needed. Fasten off leaving a 15 cm tail; with the needle weave it through the front loops of all 6 stitches of the last round, pull tight and hide the end inside.

  5. Size before assembly: about 1.2 cm at the widest, 1.6 cm long; 5 rounds.
  6. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff lightly just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done.

  21. Size before assembly: about 4.6 cm at the widest, 8 cm long; 22 rounds.
  22. Change to white (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R4).
  23. Change to blue (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R6).
  24. Change to white (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R10).
  25. Change to blue (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R12).
  26. Change to white (pull it through on the last yarn-over of R16).

  28. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Stuff lightly just before sewing it on; a little less near the edge, then add a pinch when the seam is nearly done. Bend ≈ 110° around round 10<!-- the bend spreads over 5 rounds -->. After stuffing, bend the piece so the inner side of the bend faces toward the toy's left on the finished toy (on the piece: in round 10, 4.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left <!-- st 4.45 left -->). It is a gradual bend: with the needle and matching yarn run a line of stitches along the inner side from round 8 to round 12, one stitch in every round along one column, then pull the yarn until the piece bends to the angle (the inner side gathers by about 4 rounds) and fasten off inside.

  5. Size before assembly: about 1.6 cm at the widest, 1.6 cm long; 5 rounds.
  6. → Start stuffing (firmly) and keep adding as you decrease.
  7. Top up the stuffing if needed. Fasten off leaving a 15 cm tail; with the needle weave it through the front loops of all 6 stitches of the last round, pull tight and hide the end inside.

  3. A flat circle about 1.5 cm across; 2 rounds.
  4. Fasten off leaving a long tail (30–40 cm) for sewing. Do not stuff.

The whole face is embroidered. Order: the eyes (black satin), then the white glints over them, then the nose and mouth, blush last. Mark the centres with pins first and compare with the picture. Bring thread ends out where a sewn-on piece will cover them, or bury them in the stuffing.

  • Embroidery in dark green thread (on the eye bump) (2: one on each eye bump; the left one is described, the right is its mirror), straight stitches through: (between rounds 3 and 4, 1.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right ) → (in round 4, 1 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right ) → (between rounds 4 and 5, 0.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right ) → (in round 5, 0.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ) → (between rounds 4 and 5, 1 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ) → (in round 4, 1.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ).
