Notes

T11R1 DISCOVERY

Mods:

  • I used sport weight yarn to make the crab smaller.
  • I didn’t make the bobbles.
  • I picked up the stitches wrong for the bottom shell. Now I know better.
  • For the 2nd claw on both front legs, I picked up 3 stitches from the previous cast on and continued knitting in the round.
  • I sewed TWAT onto the shell with felt. Crappy felt I might add.

I used 1.5 US (2.5mm) Karbonz dpns from Cherrycheek for a portion of this project.

Everyone needs a Derek TWAT crab.
