Bind off loosely
If you want to, you can omit the 5 first and last lines, and 5 first and last stitches in every following row, and replace them with any edging you wish. I can think that wavy lines, even lacy edges, would fit very well with the theme.
This is a test cloth I knitted with the earlier pattern, and I wasn't happy with it, so I have added quite a lot of space before and after. It should be fine now :-)
NOTE THAT THE CHART IS THE OLD ONE!

this is cute. have you knit it yet? it will be a nice gift for a lobster party.
Yes, I have :-)
I should have added the picture already yesterday, but was feeling a bit lazy and didn't scan it before now... *blush*
But now it's up there :-) Looks pretty awful, but... the lobster itself looks ok LOL
Thank you for sharing the pattern.
My mother loves lobster and this will make a great Christmas present

Any chance of getting the updated version...PRETTY PRETTY PRETTY PLEASE!!!!!
Love this design! Thank you for posting it! :)
I did want to comment that as the extra space was added around the lobster, the pattern is written so that lobster/negative space around it becomes inverted. Taking out lines 15 and 44 fix this issue.
And changing line 53 to repeat line 5 completes the border line around the seed stitch.
I made this as a gift for my MIL. I know she'll love it! Thanks again!
Thank you, Patty!
