Hi everyone, Thank you so much for your appreciation over the years. Just to let you know I have relaunched the Roman Sock Shop and you can now find it at romansock.com.
A perfect trick or treat for Halloween - very quick to make, so everyone can get one!
You're simply brilliant! And generous! Thank you for your wonderful patterns. They make my nephews clamor for more. Sigh, so little time, so many projects! :)

Round 5: 3 sc, then 2 *dc* in next st. Assuming the dc is a typo? Should be sc?

I don't get the cluster stitch either. Can anyone please explain it?

I tried a few things and ended up doing a 5 sc cluster. That is-after you *chain 4 put your hook through the chain closest to the leg and draw up a loop. **yarn over and go through one loop, 5 times. then yarn over and go through all the loops on your hook slip stitch in the same stitch where you chained 4, then chain 4 again and do the cluster again twice. If you slip sticth in the right place your toes should be facing the same way as you see in the picture.

correction to my last comment *go through chain, draw up a loop yarn over, go through one loop, 5 times from * the yarn over and go through all 6 loops on hook. that's the 5 sc cluster-then slip stitch and do chain 4 again.
Sorry about that.

I'm a novice crocheter and I'm having a little trouble with this pattern. Here is the part I don't get. These numbers are at the end of the instructions for making the head top, the body and the legs
[16]
[20]
[26]
and [32]
What is supposed to match up with these numbers? What are the numbers there for? Does anyone know?

Hi, any chance you could tell me where you star and finish the White part of the mouth? Thankyou xx

I just made my first frog/toad from the book....my frog's tummy is way tooooo deep! I think the pattern has you working about six rows without increasing or decreasing in the white part, and I think it could do with three rows less. I just now looked at the pdf, and yep, it's "body rounds 6-11." You just don't need that many rounds. My little guy is all tummy! Too tall tummy! He's awful cute, though. Can you tell us how to do the pink mouth stitching? Also made the duck-billed platypus and he looks great! This is fun!
