Hello, fellow crocheters! Today, we’re diving into a fun and functional project: a charming little frog phone bag! This tutorial will guide you through creating a delightful, miniature amphibian friend to safely carry your phone and other small essentials.

This froggy phone bag is compact and stylish, perfect for keeping your phone safe and accessible while adding a touch of whimsical charm to your everyday carry. It’s also a fantastic gift idea for friends, family, or even yourself! The design features a simple construction, making it a great project for practicing basic crochet stitches. Let's get started!

Materials You Will Need:

Before we begin, gather the following materials:
Yarn: Approximately 50-75 yards of worsted weight yarn in your chosen froggy colours. I recommend using two shades of green (light and dark) for a realistic look, and a contrasting colour for the belly and eyes. Consider using cotton yarn for durability and washability.
Crochet Hook: A size H/8 (5.0 mm) crochet hook is recommended for worsted weight yarn. Adjust hook size depending on your tension and yarn choice. A smaller hook will result in a tighter, more compact bag.
Scissors:
Yarn Needle (Tapestry Needle): For weaving in ends.
Stitch Markers (optional): Helpful for keeping track of rounds.
Stuffing (polyester fiberfill):
Small Safety Eyes (optional): For a more expressive frog.

Abbreviations:

To make following the pattern easier, we’ll be using the following abbreviations:
ch: chain
sc: single crochet
inc: increase (2 single crochet in one stitch)
dec: decrease (single crochet two stitches together)
sl st: slip stitch
rnd: round

Assembly:
Stuff the frog body firmly with fiberfill.
Sew the belly piece onto the body, leaving a small opening for the phone.
Sew the safety eyes (or embroider them) onto the frog's face.
Weave in all loose ends.

Adding Features:

You can customize your froggy phone bag by adding details like crocheted legs, a crocheted tongue, or even a tiny crocheted lily pad! Get creative and let your imagination run wild. You can easily adjust the size of the bag by adding or subtracting rounds to the body pattern.

Tips and Tricks:
Use a stitch marker to keep track of your rounds, especially when working in the round.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different colours and yarn textures.
Use a yarn needle to neatly weave in the ends of your yarn to avoid loose ends.
If your phone is particularly large, you might need to adjust the pattern to create a larger bag.

And there you have it! Your adorable crochet froggy phone bag is complete. This project is a perfect way to showcase your crochet skills while creating a fun and practical accessory. Share your finished creations with us on social media using #FroggyPhoneBag! Happy crocheting!
