Crab Crochet Pattern & Video. Mini Amigurumi Keychain

Product description

A tiny crab to keep a little piece of summer close! Crochet this small sea creature as a miniature decoration, a handmade gift, or a cheerful keychain or bag charm. It’s also a lovely way to use up leftover yarn and try different colour combinations.

The accompanying step-by-step video tutorial is available in two parts on my WoolayMo YouTube channel. Follow the written pattern at your own pace and watch the video whenever you would like a closer look.

This easy crochet project is suitable for advanced beginners who already know the basic stitches.

You can also find this pattern in my “Underwater” e-book:

    Die Anleitung ist sehr gut beschrieben. Leider kann man keine Mail an die Verfasserin schicken. Email Adresse stimmt leider nicht.
    Daher hier der Hinweis , dass es schön wäre, wenn die Krabbe 8 Beine hätte, wie in Natur auch.
