Greetings dear community, I continue cleaning my box of materials, taking advantage of each piece of yarn or thread that had been forgotten as a small thing, I try to make these days when I have not had Internet at home as productive as possible within my reach However, as my dad used to say, misfortunes do not come alone hehe, because this week I have had a severe allergy, which has made my work with the needles much more difficult, but don't worry, I am a determined woman and when I start to do something I don't rest until I have achieved it, so it was that I came to complete the realization of this cute Amigurumi Frog.
As I once mentioned, amphibians are not my favorite animal, I have a phobia of these types of creatures, but the only way I can bear to see a toad or a frog is for it to be cartoony or cute away from the realistic appearance, so that was the way I gave the amigurumi, that of a humanized frog with a cute red sweater tinged with orange and yellow.
Proceso / Process
To make this frog I used school yarn of different shades of green, for the head I made a row of light green and the next row of another shade of light green, I had little yarn of each color so that was the way I found for the material was enough. I worked with #0 crochet hook and although one of the yarns was a bit thinner than the rest I didn't mind using the same size crochet hook for the whole figure. I started with 6 single crochets in a ring, made 6 increases by four rows positioning these to create an oval of 30 stitches, then made 5 rows with no increases, then 6 decreases by three rows to get 12 stitches.
For the upper part of the body I used shaded yarn, interspersed the rows of 3 increases with normal rows until I had 24 stitches, made two rows and then two rows with green. To finish I made 12 decreases, stuffed with fiber and then made 6 decreases and hid the yarn inside.
Despite the fact that the Little Frog would not have pants, I wanted to make shoes for her to complete the humanized cartoon look, so with brown yarn I made 4 base chains and increasing at the ends back and forth I obtained 12 stitches, I made a normal row and a row taking only the back side. Then I made 4 decreases to make the toe of the shoe, obtaining 8 stitches, I changed to dark green yarn that I interspersed with light green yarn for nine rows to form the leg. Leave a long row to sew, I made the two legs in the same way.
I did the arms in a very simple way, it was enough to make 6 single crochets in a ring with green yarn and then make two rows, I changed to shaded yarn to make eight more rows. I left a long tail to sew to the body.
For the frog's eyelids I picked up one slip stitch, skip one space, made 6 double crochets together, skipped one space and then made one slip stitch, tucking the yarn inside and made the other eyelid in the same way. Then I sewed two wooden beads. I embroidered the mouth with red yarn.
Resultado/ Result
Me estoy entusiasmando mucho con la idea de crear figuras sencillas con todo restos de hilo que tengo, la anterior fue la linda patita, así que esta Ranita se le suma como compañera, espero que mi salud mejore para poder seguir trabajando en mi pasión por el crochet esta semana, sino es así no me quedará otra opción que tener un pequeño descanso para recuperarme de la alergia , déjenme suerte 😉
I am getting very excited about the idea of creating simple figures with all the thread remains that I have, the previous one was the pretty duck, so this Little Frog joins her as a companion, I hope my health improves so that I can continue working on my passion for crochet this week, otherwise I will have no choice but to take a short break to recover from my allergy, leave me luck 😉
