I just started my first tapestry of a lobster!! I saw a picture of it but i couldn’t find a pattern so I drew my own! The frogging and re-crocheting the beginning was a nightmare but now it’s starting to take shape!

Looks nice! I’ve made a few before a tip I can think of is more something to keep note of but I noticed when I do tapestry crochet when I change the colors it tends to warp or become uneven at the edges since the tension is different and causes the whole piece to change, but if you keep note of it and adjust it to make sure it’ll look the same it shouldn’t be too noticeable

Something I do at the end is do a small border around the finished piece or block it to make it even again and loosen the tension as well if you’d like it to be flat and have straight edges :grin:
