A tiny crab to keep a little piece of summer close! Crochet your own small sea creature with this detailed PDF pattern and accompanying step-by-step video tutorial. Display it as a miniature decoration, give it as a handmade gift, or turn it into a keychain or bag charm.

PATTERN & VIDEO
• 12-page PDF with detailed instructions and plenty of photos
• Available in English (US crochet terms), German and French
• Accompanying video tutorial in two parts.
Follow the written pattern at your own pace and use the video whenever you would like a closer look.

SKILL LEVEL
Easy, suitable for advanced beginners. Basic crochet skills are required.

FINISHED SIZE
• Body diameter: approximately 4.5 cm (1.77”)
• Total diameter, including legs: approximately 8 cm (3.15”)
Size may vary depending on your yarn, hook and tension.

MATERIALS
• YarnArt Jeans or similar cotton-blend yarn — 160 m / 50 g (174 yd / 50 g)
• 1.5 mm crochet hook
• Stuffing
• Two black beads, 6–7 mm, or 7 mm safety eyes
• Stitch marker and yarn needle
• Optional: a key ring or clasp

I prefer beads for the eyes because of how they look against the crochet texture.

Make one for your keys, your bag, or your collection of little crochet animals — the keychain attachment is entirely optional!
