Crochet Pattern: Spider

By Candace – 2 Comments
Is Halloween complete without a creepy, crawly spider? Many of us, myself included, could do without them, and that’s what makes them perfect creepy decorations. Luckily, this spider is jonly crocheted and completely harmless. For extra “ew” factor, suspend it from a thread or add lots of tiny googly eyes.

    I love it! My 3 yr old grandson has developed a fascination with spiders lately. Much to the dismay of his Mom and older brother! This will go great on a hat I am crocheting him!

    Thank you so much!
