Poison Dart Frog
An original realistic crochet amigurumi Poison Dart Frog pattern by June Gilbank.
This frog is based on the ‘Blue Jeans’ colour morph of the Strawberry Poison Dart frog (Dendrobates pumilio), a tiny tropical frog from the jungles of Central and South America. In real life, this little frog is only about 1” long, but the crocheted version is poison-free and a much more manageable size!
Yarn: worsted weight yarn in two colours, e.g red and blue
Hook: US E / 3.5mm
Additional info: You’ll also need 3 pipe cleaners to make the legs poseable. The ends of the pipe cleaners are protected, but please be sensible and don’t use this as a baby toy unless you skip the pipe cleaners and stitch the legs into position instead.
Size: approx 6.5″ long
Eyes: 12mm
