Here’s a pretty, lacy stitch pattern just right for summer-weight wraps and stoles. Just crochet a rectangle, maybe put an edging around it, and you’re done! This stitch pattern definitely benefits from blocking, about which I’m planning to write soon.

Carolyn,
I just love the Spider Web pattern. In fact, it is one of my favorite patterns, 2nd only to the Pineapple and/or Fan patterns for Shawls. But, I’m still working on the Calypso, so the Spider Web will have to wait for another date. Thanks for refreshing my memory with this beloved pattern!

HI FROM SUNNY MELBOURNE VICTORIA AUSTRALIA!!! I JUST WANTED TO SEND YOU A MESSAGE OF THANKS FOR THE WONDERFUL PATTERNS AND THE EASIEST OF INSTRUCTIONS!!, HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY, KIND REGARDS, DEB XXXXXX
i tried this pattern 3 times with NO success 🙁 good through round 3, then starting with 4 it goes down hill from there! either steps missing or stuff is repeated but it is lost to me! i give up! 🙁 maybe you could look at the pattern and spell it out better??? thanks 🙂
Hi– Sorry to hear you are having trouble with this. I’ve taken a look at the pattern and it’s ok. 🙂 I can’t think how row 4 is going wrong for you. I believe it is written the clearest and simplest way I can write it. So sorry. Maybe fourth time trying is the charm, or maybe something is actually going wrong with your row 3 causing row 4 not to work. 🙁 Best wishes!
Just love this stitch; thank you for sharing with all of us.
Glad you are enjoying it Mariana!
Hi. Can anyone tell me how much and what weight yarn they used? A dear friend who lost a baby 2 years ago is pregant and desperately wants a baby blanket in this. In rainbow colors.
Thanks
Hi, do you have s chart for the spider web pattern.
Was following from row 1- row 5 and got really confused at row 6. It says Ch 1, sc in tr, skip ch-3, what’s tr?
Studied the pattern more and realized the error was from me. I skipped a row. Thank you for your help though. Googled what tr means and it was smooth sailing from there.
What does ch-7 lp mean? Is it the chain 7 space or first loop of the chain 7?
