Frogs are one of my favorites to make. By following this pattern you will be able to make this cute frog coaster! I am absolutely in love with it and it is so easy and quick. Would be just the right last minute gift! I wanted to make one for so long and I finally did it. The design and pattern is my own and I want to share with you how I made my cute coaster. You can also watch the Youtube tutorial and follow along if you get stuck with the pattern.

Remember : At the end of each row, make a sl st and join the row to finish the row. Start each row with a ch 1. You will also have to make treble bbl and htr. These may be new stitches for you, so I recommend you to follow my YT tutorial to see how to do the stitches. I have included timestamps under the video so that it is easy for ya ;)
R1 : 10 hdc in mr [10]
R2: hdc inc * 10 [20]
R3: (hdc, hdc inc ) * 10 [30]
R4: (hdc, hdc inc, hdc ) * 10 [40]
R5: (3 hdc, hdc inc) * 10 [50]

you are half way done and now repeat the same pattern to make the other half of the frogie. (sc, hdc), dc inc, htr inc, dc inc, (sc, hdc), 3 sl st into blo, treble bbl, 8 sl st into blo, treble bbl, 5 sl st into blo
oki doki we have completed the coaster and it's time to add the face details.
And you are done! Give the frogie a grumpy face/ happy face/ confused face haha all sorta options.🌼 Be creative!!!! 🌼
Pouch/ Bag charm :
For floofiez who wanna go ahead and make the bag pouch/charm all you have to do is repeat the same pattern and make another one.
Next you are going to join the two panels using any method you like. I used the slip stitch method. Remember to keep an opening on the top.
To make the longer chain, repeat the process on the other panel and instead of 6 chains, make 50 ch. If you want it longer make more ch.
Woooohoooooo \(^o^)/ You have yourself a kawaiiiiiii flogieeee bag charm!!!! and a kawaiiii flogie coaster for your mug. (hehe the fancy term now is mug rug😁 flogie rug! heehee)
Well then, thank you so much for following my pattern. Don't forget to share your cute, beautiful work with me on instagram @pikipikicrafts I will be very much thrilled to see them and share with my PiKi PiKi fam!
