OK, you asked for it so here it is! The crochet version of cheezombie’s knit Garden Slug http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/garden-slug has all the charm of the original with a crochet attitude. Except he prefers Foster’s to Pabst.

The examples were made with various worsted weight yarns & US size F (3.75 mm) hook, & measure about 4 inches tall & 5 inches long, but almost any correct yarn/hook combination will work with this advanced beginner/intermediate pattern.

The body is worked in one piece, with the eyestalks & lips worked separately & sewn on. All you have to know how to do is single crochet, decrease, increase, work in a spiral, & basic sewing. Stitch descriptions & helpful links to tutorials are provided, & cheezombie is available for help via email as always.

Keep a lookout for more crochet versions of the cheezombie family!
