Creep out your friends and family with your own disgustingly creepy interactive crochet spider amigurumi.

The interactive eye system allows you to pull one eye to make the other retract. When you have finished playing there is a reset system to pull both eyes back flush with the head.

A giant fun toy you can use to torment the arachnophobes in your life.

Easy step by step instructions with photos help you to crochet your own creepy spider.
Recommended for intermediate crochet levels.

This project should take about 7 hours (depending on crochet skills).

Spider measures 23 cm (9 in) long from head to tail and 54 cm (21 in) across with legs extended.
