Halloween Spider Chocolate Orange Cover PDF Knitting Pattern DK 8ply Download
Transform a chocolate orange into a fun Halloween spider with this digital knitting pattern. The finished cover features a rounded black body, eight striped orange-and-black legs and a pair of playful craft eyes.
Each leg contains a pipe cleaner or length of craft wire, allowing it to be bent into different poses. Designed to fit over a standard chocolate orange, this creepy-cute spider makes an unusual Halloween gift, party favour, table decoration or trick-or-treat surprise.
The body and all eight legs are worked flat on straight knitting needles. Simple shaping creates the rounded cover, while the legs are knitted separately, fitted with craft wire and sewn around the base.
This pattern is suitable for knitters comfortable with knit and purl stitches, increasing, decreasing, colour changes and assembling small knitted pieces.
