Saturday amigurumi 9 – Spinny the Spider

 I am not a fan of spiders but am fascinated by the amazing silk fibre they produce. I have in my childhood watched for hours the way these sticky crawlies build their web and how they kill their prey.

Here is my crocheted ode to the sticky arachnid!! A gift to a spider fan next door 🙂

Here is a small trick I learnt to make crocheted limbs bend in any angle. Very simple. Figure out the blue legs below 😉

Pipe cleaners !!!!! That’s it 🙂 Crochet around them and you have bendy legs and hands 🙂

  1. I think your spider looks very sweet but then I am rather fond of spiders. May I share this funny video with you of my land and some of our spiders?

    • Ha ha haa !!! LOL 😀 I simply love this video. Thanks for sharing it !! I always wondered at you guys in dinkum land whenever we heard news of you guys being attacked by crocs, sharks and kangaroos … as if you were playing fetch with your canine and feline pets in your backyard 🙂
      I guess they are native (ab)original survival skills you are endowed with 😉
