Fabio Frog Reviewed by Jennifer Apodaca on 2012-01-22 *****
Great little afternoon of fun, my daughter really wanted this because Abby Cadabby carries a frog prince but you can't buy one. SO as far as making it just make the crown, mouth, arms and legs first, and put on after making the head, neck and on down, that way you can really tie it in and leave your ends on the inside with no knots on the outside. Also in my town safety eyes are not available so I just put multiple knots (french knots) in black yarn and it worked just fine.
