“Crabs, crabs, crabs. You scuttle, snap, and clean. When you’re babies, you swim. You crabs come in many shapes and sizes!”-Casper
This was the inspiration for Casper’s crab jumper, who is, for some time now, a big fan of the crab. In addition, there is a seahorse chart for those of you wanting to rise up into the coral reef!

This is a pattern for a raglan jumper/pullover knit in the round from the top down. There are charts for the colour work collar band and body front. The collar band is worked stranded, but the body is knit using an intarsia in-the-round technique.
