made this little guy up from seeing the horrendous lack of spycrab crochet patterns on the market currently 😔
make a dude or two and expand the bingus-spycrab army!!
i used a 3.5mm hook with dk acrylic wool
you will need;
Stitch markers
tapestry needle
stuffing
Safety eyes or black buttons
Wool in 2 colours
Peach
Red or blue
clay for the cigarette
the spycrab made to these proportions will measure about 15mm x 10mm 👍
Abbreviations used – pattern written in US crochet terms
sc- single crochet, sc around means do one sc in each stitch
hdc- half double crochet
dc- double crochet
tc- treble crochet
ch- chain
inc- An increase, single crochet twice in the same stitch
dec- A decrease, single crochet two stitches together
[__]- instructions in square brackets need to be repeated the number of times shown on the x_ On the outside of it, so [inc, sc]x3 means you increase, single crochet, increase, single crochet, increase, and then single crochet
(number)- At the end of the row, the number in the brackets is the number of stitches there should be, or the number of stitches you should have done by the end of the row.
An increase counts as two, a decrease counts as one.
