The Little Caterpillar gets hangry (hungry and angry) unless he eats lots of fresh fruit! He needs to eat lots of fruit to grow strong and become a beautiful butterfly.

This Hangry Caterpillar Mobile is made up of five fruits (Lemon, Pear, Apple, Watermelon and Plum), and a Caterpillar.

The Butterfly, that the Caterpillar turns into after eating all the fruit, is separate to the mobile.

The toys for the mobile and the butterfly are crocheted in the round, except for the Watermelon.
