Crochet Spider Stitch WRITTEN PATTERN

USA STITCH TERMS

Hook Size(s): according to your yarn (preferably a hook size bigger or more than recommended to get nice drape. If you want a dense fabric - for example, for a washcloth - then use the recommended hook size that your chosen yarn recommends)

The yarns I used:

🧢 Yarn & Hook information: Yarn in thumbnail: Ice Yarn Lana Bella with a 5mm Hook

Yarn in tutorial: Perran Yarns Hand dyed Merino Silk Blend Aran weight yarn with a 6mm Hook (shade: "Toffee Apple")

Abbreviations:

β€’ Ch = Chain

β€’ SC = Single crochet

β€’ Rep = Repeat

β€’ St = Stitch

SPECIAL STITCH

Spider Stitch = single crochet, chain 1, single crochet (sc, ch1, sc) all into the same stitch

Foundation Row: Ch an odd number for your desired width.

Row 1 SET UP ROW: In the third ch from the hook, make 1 SC.

SC in each ch along. Make a note of how many SC you make for this set up row as you will need to remember this number for the final row

Row 2: Ch 2 and turn.

Make Spider Stitch in the next st. Skip a st, Spider Stitch in the next. Repeat * skip a st, Spider Stitch in next* across the row until you have 1 SC remaining. Finish the row with 1 SC in the Ch2 space at the end of the row. (the 2 chains you skipped on the set up row)

Rows 3-onward: Ch2 and turn.

Make Spider Stitch in the Ch1 space of the Spider Stitches from the row below. Repeat this across the row and end with 1 SC in the ch2 space at the end of the Row.

Final Row:

Once you have reached the desired length, ch1 and turn.

1 SC in-between the SC and the Spider Stitch from the row below. Slip Stitch into the Ch1 Space of the Spider Stitch.

1 SC in-between the sets of Spider Stitches, Slip Stitch into the Ch1 space of the next Spider Stitch. Repeat until the end of the row.

Finish with 1 SC into the Ch2 space.

You should have the same number of stitches (SC & Slip Stitches) as the total number of SC you made on the Set Up Row 1.

Fasten off with a Ch1 and cut the yarn.
