Pattern is for a pose-able ghost crab stuffed toy or decoration, complete with pirate hat and fish skeleton “plume”. Two strands of cotton thread help keep the stuffing in, and maintain shape. Although the captain is modeled after the ghost crab of the Carolina beaches, he is the mascot for Captain Claw Crafts. Hat can be attached to him permanently or worked separate and used for other toys, decoration or if a larger yarn is used and according size hooks, can be a hat for child play.
Pipe cleaners are suggested for shaping the legs and making them more pose-able, but these can be left out for safer play.
Pattern includes pictures, instructions and suggestions for alternatives to portions of the pattern.
Colors used on the model are listed in the pattern, however, he can be any color you desire and he can be embellished with all kinds of accessories to give him personality.
