A tiny royal frog ready to brighten your crochet day
This free amigurumi frog pattern for beginners is designed by Evgeniya Kiryukhina and brings a playful twist with its adorable crown detail. Measuring about 12–13 cm including the crown, Fiona is a sweet choice for crochet gift ideas, nursery decor, or handmade keepsakes. You will also find related frog amigurumi ideas placed at the end of the pattern for extra inspiration. With its compact shaping and simple construction, this design naturally fits beginner-friendly and quick crochet projects, and we sincerely thank the designer for generously sharing this charming frog.
This beginner-friendly amigurumi pattern is written in a clear format using basic stitches only, making it easy to follow at a relaxed pace. The small size allows for a quick finish, while the tiny crown adds personality without adding complexity. If you enjoy small woodland-style toys, you might also love the mini bear shared on our other blog, which pairs beautifully with nature-inspired collections.
The pattern uses YarnArt Jeans yarn and a 2 mm crochet hook to create a crisp finish, along with 5 mm safety eyes for expression. Cotton yarn keeps the stitches neat and defined, while velvet yarn can turn the same design into a larger plush version. For another quick and charming make, take a look at the easy giraffe featured on our blog, especially if you enjoy compact and low sew character designs.
