Frogger Mitts were originally published in 2017 as the Pearl Fiber Arts store pattern during the Rose City Yarn Crawl. They have now been updated to include an additional size, and to my current designing standards.
These convertible mitts feature a fun slip stitch pattern on the backs and a smooth stockinette palm.

Photos by Rose City Yarn Crawl are for this version here (this yarn has now been discontinued). The pattern included in the Rose City Yarn Crawl 2017 collection only has the first 2 sizes included.
This pattern was originally published as Pearl Fiber Arts’ contribution to the 2017 Rose City Yarn Crawl, March 2 – 5, 2017 in Portland, Oregon.
When I first heard about the Portland Pastimes theme, I initially thought of the Naked Bike Ride. However, soon after that, I kept thinking of Ground Kontrol (one of the best arcade bars I’ve ever seen). Frogger is a merging of these two things, with the patterning on the mitts reminding me of all the obstacles that both bikers and the frog need to avoid on the way to their destination.
