Like some children, crabs are independent and feisty. Do not worry, Cranky the Crab has pincers made from yarn so they are soft and safe for kids to interact with. A cute rug will make a great addition to any playroom or a reading nook. This pattern is written row-by-row using US crochet terms, along with crochet diagrams, step-by-step photos and a conversion chart to UK terms.
