The frog arms consist of the upper arms and the frog arms. The upper arms consist of an outer side and
an inner side, which are first individually crochet and crochet together in the last step.

The frog arms, on the other hand, are crochet in the spiral round technique and then sewn to the upper
arms - see the overall fig.:

1. outer side of the upper arm (make 2)

The outer side of the upper arm are crocheted using apple green or kiwi colored yarn (hook size 2.5 –
3.5 (e.g. “Catania”) as well as your C hook size 2.

Please pay attention to the direction of crocheting around the edges on page 17!

3. step in between: join the outer side and the inner side (make 2)

 the finished outer resp. inner side of the arms are placed on one another, and the "open" stitch of the
outer side of the upper arm is taken up again

 with crochet hook and yarn, both sides of the upper arm are crocheted with sc and stuffed with
fibrefill during the joining – cf.fig. on the next page

 note: For a shapely stuffing it is advisable to stuff the upper arms with the end piece of the crochet
hook

 fasten off last stitch; leaving a tail of about 10 inches so you can sew the upper arms to the body in
the next step – cf.fig.:

the opposing stitches; fixate the upper arms to the body with pins and sew them on it – cf.fig.:

 put the finished upper arms aside and start with crocheting the front legs of the frog

4. small front legs (make 2)

The small front legs consist of three single foot pieces, which are individually crochet and are sewn
together after finishing.
The small front legs are crocheted using apple green or kiwi colored yarn (hook size 2.5 – 3.5 (e.g.
“Catania”) as well as your C hook size 2. During crochting they will be rounds 1- 5 will be stuffed
with fibrefill and the last rounds will be stuffed with a pipe cleaning wire.

Please note the hints for stuffing each piece, and also note that the middle foot part is larger than the
two others!
