Crochet spiders












These crochet spiders are easy to make and a great treat for children on Halloween.

(I used Red Heart super saver yarn)

Spider Body
1. Make a magic ring (see video below)
2. 6 SC (single crochet) in ring
3. Increase in each stitch (12)
4. SC in first stitch, 2 SC in next (repeat) (18)
5. SC in next two stitches, 2 SC next stitch (repeat) (24)

10. SC, decrease 2 (repeat) (12)
11. Decrease 2 (repeat) (6)
Insert yarn through the six stitches, pull to close the circle.

Spider Legs
1. Chain 2
2. SC 8 in second chain

I used google eyes for the crochet spider, but if you are giving the toy to a small child, use safety eyes.
