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

A free crochet frog keychain pattern for a tiny round frog wearing a red toadstool cap. This amigurumi frog has bulging eyes with little glints, pink cheeks, a cream tummy and white dots on its hat, plus a chain loop on top for a key ring. It is worked in the round in single crochet with fingering yarn and a 2 mm hook, stands about 5.4 cm (2 in) tall, and the eyes and smile are embroidered. Follow it row by row with stitch counts and turn the interactive 3D model to see where every piece goes.

How to crochet the Mini Frog Keychain

Beginner-friendly · 5 cm tall · about 2 h · fingering yarn · 2 mm hook

  1. Crochet the 12 pieces in rounds: Head-body, Eye bump ×2, Toadstool cap, Dot ×4, Foot ×2, Cheek ×2 (47 rounds in all).
  2. Stuff and put it together in 9 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 ≈ 3 mm wide, 1 round ≈ 2.7 mm tall (10 cm ≈ 33 sc × 37 rounds); yarn about 1.4 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.

    1. Head-body is the base; its magic ring is at the bottom.
    1. Eye bump → head-body (make 2). Centre: in round 18, 3.5 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left (the one on the toy's left is described; sew the other as its mirror image). Sew the piece on by its closed end (last rounds); it touches rounds 17–19 of the head-body, about 2 st wide. It points up and forward and slightly outward.
    1. Toadstool cap → head-body. Centre: at the centre of the last round. Sew the piece on by its closed end (last rounds); it touches rounds 18–22 of the head-body (all the way round). It points up. Press it into the base by about 5 mm.
    1. Dot (top) → toadstool cap. Centre: in round 3, 1 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left. Sew it flat all round its edge; it covers rounds 1–5 of the toadstool cap, about 5 st wide.
    1. Dot (back) → toadstool cap. Centre: in round 6, on the centre back line. Sew it flat all round its edge; it covers rounds 4–8 of the toadstool cap, about 4 st wide.
    1. Dot (side) → toadstool cap (make 2). Centre: in round 7, 8 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left (the one on the toy's left is described; sew the other as its mirror image). Sew it flat all round its edge; it covers rounds 5–8 of the toadstool cap, about 4 st wide.
    1. Foot → head-body (make 2). Centre: between rounds 5 and 6, 3 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left (the one on the toy's left is described; sew the other as its mirror image). Sew around the opening (9 st); the seam covers rounds 4–7 of the head-body, about 3 st wide. It points forward and slightly down.
    1. Cheek → head-body (make 2). Centre: in round 14, 8 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left (the one on the toy's left is described; sew the other as its mirror image). Sew it flat all round its edge; it covers rounds 12–16 of the head-body, about 3 st wide.
    1. Chain loop: with rope brown, ch 23 (≈ 52 mm), then sl st back along the chain starting in the 2nd ch from hook. Sew its start to the toadstool cap: at the centre of the magic ring.

    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.

    • Embroidered eyes (on the eye bump) (2: one on each eye bump; the left one is described, the right is its mirror): in black thread, a oval about 6 mm wide and 6 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred between rounds 1 and 2, on the centre front line.
    • Eye glint (on the eye bump) (2: one on each eye bump; the left one is described, the right is its mirror): in snow white thread over the embroidered eye, a oval about 2 mm wide and 2 mm tall, horizontal stitches; centred between rounds 1 and 2, on the centre front line, then moved 1.2 mm to the right and 1.5 mm up (looking at the toy's face).
    • Embroidery in dark brown thread (on the head-body), straight stitches through: (in round 16, 2 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ) → (between rounds 14 and 15, 1 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's left ) → (in round 14, on the centre front line ) → (between rounds 14 and 15, 1 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right ) → (in round 16, 2 st from the centre front line, toward the toy's right ).
