Plush Duck in a Frog Hat
This is the description for crocheting a small and cute duck in a frog hat by Anastasia Kosolapova. To make this toy, you will need a 4mm hook and plush yarn like Himalaya Dolphin Baby or its equivalent. The duck is easy and quick to crochet, and the pattern is suitable for beginners. The hat is removable, and the head and body of the duck are crocheted as one piece, while the other parts are sewn on. The finished size of the amigurumi duck will depend on the materials used and the crochet tension.
