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

A free crochet frog pattern for a big, squishy cushion frog with huge eye bumps, a wide smile and a round, pillow-soft body. This jumbo amigurumi frog is moss green with a pale lime belly patch, pink cheeks, stubby front paws and flat leaf-green feet with round toes, so it makes a soft floor plush to hug. It is worked in the round in single crochet with bulky yarn and a 6 mm hook, stands about 30 cm (12 in) tall with 30 mm safety eyes, and the head, eye bumps, belly, paws, feet and toes are sewn onto the body. Follow it row by row with stitch counts and turn the interactive 3D model to check every piece.

How to crochet the Big Chunky Frog

Advanced · 31 cm tall · about 12 h · bulky yarn · 6 mm hook

  1. Crochet the 17 pieces in rounds: Body, Head, Eye bump ×2, Belly patch, Front paw ×2, Hind foot ×2, Toe ×6, Cheek ×2 (111 rounds in all).
  2. Stuff and put it together in 10 steps; each one lights up where it goes on the 3D model.
  3. Add the face: safety eyes by round and stitch, or embroider them for a child under 3.

Every round with its stitch count is in the Pattern tab below, and in the free printable PDF.

Gauge

1 sc ≈ 7.5 mm wide, 1 round ≈ 6.8 mm tall (10 cm ≈ 13 sc × 15 rounds); yarn about 3.6 mm thick. The gauge sets the size of the toy; crochet tightly so the stuffing does not show.

Worked in

Continuous spiral rounds. Don't join. Move a stitch marker up every round.

The round-start marker is in the middle of a long side (the piece's centre line), while R1 starts at a turn: after R1 shift the round start — sc 4 more (not counted in any round) and place the marker there. The increases fall on the turns.
  2. With pale lime: ch 10.

Safety eyes and noses go in before the piece is stuffed and closed (see the pieces above); embroidery is easier before the piece is sewn on.
