Sharlotte The Spider
Sharlotte The Spider amigurumi pattern is the perfect crochet pattern for spider lovers.
Skill Level: Beginner
The pattern is written in U.S. crochet terms, complete with clear instructions and pictures to help you along the way. Sharlotte The Spider is crocheted in continuous spirals without joining the rounds. I suggest using a stitch marker or different color yarn to keep track of each round. Sharlotte The Spider crocheted in worsted weight yarn is approximately two inches tall. Be aware that size may vary depending on the yarn and hook size used. Gauge is not particularly important, just be consistent with the tension you are using. And most importantly, have fun!

Embroider The Eyes And Lashes
-
Begin by placing a pin in the middle of the piece, between R12 and R13, as pictured.
-
Thread a long piece of embroidery floss into a needle. Knot the end.
-
On the inside of your piece, pick up a bit of yarn with your needle and make a knot on the inside of the head. Begin to embroider into the 2nd stitch to the right of the pin.
-
Insert your needle one round up and one stitch over.
-
Make a knot on the inside of the head and then insert your needle back through the same stitch.
-
-
Insert your needle one round down and one stitch over. Make a knot on the inside of the head. Then insert your needle back through the same stitch.
-
Insert your needle one round up to make the first eyelash.
-
Move your needle up to make the second eyelash. Secure with a knot on the inside of the head.

Repeat on the other side. Begin to embroider into the 2nd stitch to the left of the pin.
-
R17: (dec, sc in next 2 sts) 8 times {24 sts}

Begin to stuff the head and continue as you crochet. Make sure not to overstuff. You want the top and bottom to lay flat.
