Free Crochet Pattern: Crochet Pocket Frog

Sometimes, you just want a cute, quick crochet pattern, and this crochet pocket frog certainly ticks all the boxes! It’s also the perfect way to use up scrap yarn.

This free crochet frog pattern is perfect for markets. You can add a keychain or sell them as “Worry Frogs.”

I made a bunch for my boys and their classmates after they had to release the frogs they found at school. They were super upset to say good-bye to their frog friends. The frogs….not so much!

I’m an impatient crocheter, so quick crochet projects are where it’s at. Let’s dive into it.

Notes

I haven’t included stitch counts because this pattern is super forgiving. And in the spirit of honesty, I’m all about winging it a bit on quick crochet projects.
