In this pattern you will find two looks! One is the bee romper/ swimsuit and the second one is the halter top look with details on the legs :)

This pattern does not include the frog pattern. If you would like to knit your own frog, you can purchase the pattern on Claire Garland’s etsy or ravelry shops

This pattern is made for a froggy knitted with 3mm needles, finished froggy is approximately 12 cm tall. The swimsuit/romper is 4cm tall (including the straps) and 3.5 cm wide. If your froggy is smaller or bigger, I advise you to go down or up a needle size.

Abbreviations and techniques
K knit
K2tog - Knit two stitches together

M1L - make one left - To “make 1 left” (m1L), pick up the bar between the stitch you knit and the one you’re about to knit, bringing the needle from front to back. Next, insert the tip of the right needle knit wise into the back leg of the strand and knit as usual. M1L and M1R instructions by purlsoho

M1R - make one right - To “make 1 right” (m1R), use the left needle to pick up the strand between the last stitch you knit and the one you’re about to knit, bringing the needle from back to front. Leave the strand on the left needle. Next, insert the tip of the right needle knit wise into the front leg of the strand and knit as usual.
skpo - slip, knit, pass over - slip the first stitch onto the right-hand needle without knitting it. Knit the next stitch. Using the left-hand needle, pick up the first stitch and pass it over the stitch you just knit.
