Fun, scary spiders and beautiful to wear, stand out this Halloween, or every day of the year if you want to change the motifs, the only limit is your imagination with this amazing spider sweater.
The thought of Halloween brings to mind spiders, webs, ghouls and ghosts. Colours of Autumn and darker nights. So a sweater with autumn colours and a few scary creatures of choice and we have a
statement piece. It will keep you warm while adding a touch scariness to any outfit. In addition to so many different yarn colour combinations giving you the an ultimate pop and pizazz that you will be standing out from any crowd, especially if you are trick or treating.
The crochet top pairs beautifully with cut-off shorts, skirts or jeans. This pattern has detailed directions on how to change size measurements from S-XL. I recommend using natural fibres such as bamboo, silk, cotton, or linen as they provide a lovely drape.
This sweater is built is built by constructing the spider motifs separately, creating the ribbing then the spiked stitched sections, then the lace section is created. The arms are then added when the panels are attached, finally add the finishing touches of the ribbing and spiders.
