Stanley Spider

Stanley the Spider is feeling a bit glum, and you can discover why by visiting my blog! He’s not just any spider; he’s a delightful knitting project that will bring a smile to your face. This adorable creature is incredibly easy to make, allowing you to unleash your creativity and knitting skills. Stanley is knitted flat on two needles, making him perfect for both beginners and experienced knitters alike. Plus, his charming icord legs add a touch of whimsy to his character.

For his tiny feet, I chose black buttons, but beads would also be an excellent alternative to add some sparkle! I personally used Rowan Fine Tweed yarn in the shade Pendle, and I was delighted to find that I could knit two Stanleys from just one 25g ball. This yarn offers a beautiful texture, but feel free to experiment with other wool types; just be sure to adjust your needle size accordingly. The rough yet bumpy texture of Rowan Fine Tweed adds a unique dimension to Stanley, making him truly special.
