Restaurants advertise their twin lobster dinner prices on signs outside.
Two knitted lobsters on a plate
The newest lobster in all of its gloryI used 2 skeins of Debbie Bliss Donegal Chunky Tweed in Color 29212o for this second lobster on size 5 double-pointed needles.
The mottled color and wool material of this yarn make an exceptional lobster toy, if I do say so myself.

LOL! I was going to berate you for the cruelty of posting the remains of a twin lobster dinner! And I have tackled the twins. I usually end up taking the tail meat home from the second for lobster salad. The last double dinner though, the poor waitress never got my comment that the two lobsters didn't strike me as twins. File that under obnoxious diner. :-)
But back to your two cuties. They are just adorable and safe around wine bottles too! If I was your host, I would be thrilled. Way to go Sue.
The lobsters are so cute! And they look so good in the gift bags with the wine bottle, what great gift!
Isn't it a great feeling when a plan comes together! They are so cute! Congrats on meeting a deadline!
Theresa....congrats on tackling twins and living to joke about it!
Glad that even the non-lobster-crazy among us think the lobsters are cute!
And thanks for the deadline meeting congratulations! I might start knitting or weaving other gifts too after a long hiatus. (Still mulling that over though!)
I guess the proof of the gift will be in the giving, right??

Absolutely adorable lobsters! The eyes are great - really give them each their own personality! What a wonderful gift for your friends - sure to make them smile!
Congrats! They look great! I love the idea of the wine pairing! Such fun and you should be proud. Enjoy your vacation!
Your lobster are too cute!!!!!
Love the pictures you took of them especially the one on the plate. I think it's the way you added the eyes that gave each one it's own personality.
The eyes have it!
I didn't realize when I was making them that the eyes were different, but they really are noticeable in the pictures!!
Can't wait to gift these!!
Sue
