Lobster Knitting Kit, Sincerely Louise

Bring the charm of the coast to your needles with this brilliantly bold knitted lobster. Worked flat on straight needles with no knitting in the round, it’s an easy/intermediate project that knits up surprisingly quickly, perfect for when you want something joyful and a little bit quirky. Those long feelers and chunky claws give it heaps of character, making it a real showstopper once finished.

So crack on and get knitting! Part of the Beside the Seaside collection, this kit includes a beautifully printed booklet featuring this pattern plus nine other coastal-inspired designs. Whether it’s destined for a bathroom shelf, a child’s room, or your own crafty display, this little crustacean is sure to raise a smile.
