Froggy Ina Pumpkin

Knit your choice of a ribbed pumpkin or jack-o-lantern pumpkin!

Froggy Ina is a playful frog, always getting into mischief and into costume. Curiosity leads her to the best adventures, and now she finds herself on your needles.

Worried about sewing the eyes on and having your Froggy look just as cute? Don't worry! We knit the outer eye ridge as we make Froggy, so you can't get the placement wrong. Then afterwards we fill it with the pupils, easy-peasy!

So cute it's spooky! 20% off with the code "FroggyInaDiscount" until October 31
