"THE FROG PATTERN OMG!" I am Bog!
Meet Bog, the bat frog! He can be made as a regular frog or as a bat frog. To make his spots, simply use a paint pen. Using the suggested materials, Bog will be approximately 4.5 inches tall. This is a rather quick pattern that may take around 4 hours to complete. Only the arms and legs need to be sewn on, but if you truly want a no sew pattern you can just pop in some bobbles! This is not written in the pattern so you will have to eye where your bobbles should go. I do not have suggested placement for these bobbles, but I have a lot of people ask how to make some items no sew.
This pattern was inspired by a bat frog drawing by guild_of_calamity on Insta. Yes, I got permission from them to use their photo as inspiration 🖤.
I'd say this is an advanced beginner to intermediate pattern - you will have to work into the third loop at one point and crochet separate pieces together. However this will come with a separate PDF file to break down the hardest steps.
