Is FROG an acronym?

If so what do the letters stand for?

TIA, Kathi

No, it’s not an acronym. Frogs say ‘ribbit’ and what we do when we frog is rippit… get it? Rip It? :teehee:

It can also be an acronym (totally not knitting-related…well, maybe sometimes depending on the difficulty of the pattern.) for

[B]F[/B]ully [B]R[/B]ely [B]O[/B]n [B]G[/B]od.

I know it’s not an acronym, but I think it would be fun to think up a few. How about [B]F[/B]ully un[B]R[/B]aveled [B]O[/B]n [B]G[/B]round.

Been there done that!! That’s a good one.

A frog can be a military style fastening on a coat consisting of a button and a loop.

This is a typical frog fastener

It’s really just because you “rippit, rippit” - but I’ve heard some people claim it stands for

F***ing Ripped Out, GRRRRRRRRR!

A frog also makes… a really neat emblem for a needleworking website!! (She’s holding a crochet hook, and two knitting needles - with a tatting shuttle on the ground.)

My frog is named Murial - like the wonderful grandmotherly lady in “Courage the Cowardly Dog”, lol!

I chose the frog for my symbol because I do “frog” a lot - but Aunt Dot also has a wonderful Fudge Pot, lol where you learn how to cover up (fudge) your knitting goofs instead.

Yes that’s it - thanks AngelaR. They always look quite Russian to me.
