In crochet, what does "frog" mean? I have seen it mentioned several times, but I have no idea what it means.

To "frog" I have gathered is to "rip-it" out...

I learned to "frog" in knitting. A frog says, "Ribbit, Ribbit". Say it fast and it becomes, "Rip it, Rip it"!

I have experienced this yarn unweaving too. It especially worried me when doing items for babies and toddlers who put every thing in their mouth. So I started working my ends in as I worked the pattern. I have used glue many times on the ends before I weave them in once I had the yarn on the needle. Be certain that the glue used is NOT toxic if ingested.
