It’s a crochet scarf! It’s a toy! It’s both! This crocodile-stitch crocodile is sure to brighten the day of your favorite child.

Casey the Crocodile is

A traveling fool,

Especially when it’s time

To head back to school.

Just grab him and go,

And wrap him around.

He’s always ready to

Head into town.

Don’t worry at all:

He won’t put up a fight.

He’ll be your best friend,

And he’ll never bite!
