Flapjack Frog

Flapjack Frogs
I was so excited to see Anna design another stackable toy pattern. Her series of stackable toys are so cute. I was happy to test knit the Flapjack Frogs for her. She didn't need the test knitters to knit up all 3 frogs, but I plan to when I get my order of safety eyes. I only had one set left for one frog. As always, her construction techniques makes the knitting very interesting. The only thing to seam up was attaching the arms and legs to the body.

Melody has been enjoying playing with it. She likes to make the frog eat the fly by hiding it underneath it's belly. It's so cute hearing her say,"Nom, nom, nom!"

What fun! I was a tester for these flat frogs too, and I love the way yours came out- Darned near perfect, I'd say.
