Larry the Lobster

Larry the Lobster is an adorable knitted creation designed to bring a touch of whimsy to your crafting projects! With his giant claws waving hello, this delightful lobster pattern combines a variety of techniques, including knits and purls, along with simple increases and decreases for shaping. Created by the talented Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz, Larry is crafted using soft acrylic DK yarns on single pointed needles—perfect for those who prefer working flat rather than in the round.

This charming lobster features intricate details achieved through easy techniques that are accessible for confident beginners and above. The pattern includes essential skills such as casting on and off, knitting, purling, increasing and decreasing stitches, and seaming to bring your creation to life. To add an extra touch of character, the feelers and slender legs of Larry are made using i-cord tubes knitted on two double-pointed needles (DPNs).

Whether you're looking to enhance your knitting repertoire or create a unique gift, this pattern is sure to inspire your creativity. Download the free or paid pattern today and start knitting your very own Larry the Lobster!
