The Kiwi Hermit Crab is the fourth creature in the Fruity Animals collection. It’s a combination of a happy hermit crab who just found a new fuzzy home inspired by the kiwi fruit.

The main part of this project is worked in rounds so you might want to use a stitch marker to mark the end of each round. There is no specific gauge for this project, just try to keep it tight and even throughout each piece. Kiwi Hermit Crab measures approx. 12cm (4.7in), when using the same yarn and tools indicated below.
