Frog + Toad Kit
When I first saw the pattern from Frog & Cast I knew immediately I wanted to knit my own Frog + Toad. Knitting these buddies and then making tiny garments (!) was such a joy from the initial cast on that I could not resist offering a kit to share this goodness with you. Kelson DK offers two 50 grams skeins in hand dyed colors River Grass and Tumbleweed, just enough yardage for swatching and making without excessive leftovers. For the wardrobe, four classic shades of Jamieson’s Shetland Spindrift (a standard-bearer of Shetland yarn) are included. A tidy amount of embroidery floss rounds out all the preliminary materials you’ll need to make two good friends.
Please Note: The Frog + Toad Kit does not include the pattern, which is sold as a Knit or Crochet version exclusively by Frog & Cast. The patterns can be purchased here. This Kit includes a postcard with a QR code, which links directly to the Frog & Cast website via a smartphone.
Looking for additional skeins of Kelson DK? I’m happy to offer the individual skeins of Kelson DK here!
