Free crochet frog pattern: a grumpy amigurumi frog wearing a giant red toadstool hat with white spots. About 27 cm tall in DK yarn with a 2.5 mm hook, a weekend project of about 10 hours. A thick unibrow, an unimpressed side-eye and two buck teeth make this the frog that did not ask to be this cute. The mushroom cap is worked separately and stitched over the head; arms and stubby legs are sewn to the round body. A funny cottagecore crochet gift and a statement piece for any shelf of weird toys. Explore the 3D model, then crochet it round by round.
