Heights are approximate. Everything here is made by hand, so no two come out exactly the same size — expect a centimetre or two either way.

Care & safety. Surface wash cold, air dry — never machine washed. Contains safety eyes, so it's for ages 3 and up. Embroidered eyes on request for a baby-safe version.

Kritter story

Making Shelly & Coral

Each crab is really two projects — the crab, and the house it lives in. There are three shells here: the two they're wearing, plus a spare spiral one behind the red crab, worked in multicoloured yarn from the tip outwards. The crabs swap between them.
