11 Crochet Spider Web Patterns with Free PDFs

A web across the table, a tiny spider hanging from an earring, a blanket with bold lines running from its center: a crochet spider web can take quite a few forms. This collection brings together 11 patterns for decorating the house, making an accessory or settling into a larger blanket project.

Each entry has a free PDF pattern, a photo and the main yarn, hook and size details to help you choose. Some webs are open chains; others use surface crochet or lace stitches. Start with the finished look you like, then check the construction before reaching for your yarn.

1. Openwork Spider Web Table Topper

An orange web spread over a bare table makes the whole surface part of the decoration. The open spaces let the wood show through, and the pointed edging hangs over the sides. This is the most direct choice if you came looking for a crochet spider web to use as a Halloween centerpiece. A dark tablecloth underneath would give the orange lines a different background without changing the pattern.

Yarn and hook: Medium-weight yarn; 5.5 mm hook.
Size: 54 inches (137 cm) across.

Before you start

The shape grows from six large loops. Mark the chain positions carefully and keep moving the markers as the web expands. Measure your table before starting: the listed diameter is for the whole topper, including the part that may hang over the edge.

2. Green Spider Web Table Mat

Prefer a smaller centerpiece with a solid background? This green mat has charcoal web lines laid over a filled crochet base. Eight pointed edges give it a crisp outline, while the contrast keeps the web visible underneath a small arrangement. The spider and candle holders in the photo are styling props; the crochet project is the mat.

Yarn and hook: Medium-weight yarn; 3.25 mm hook.
Size: 20 inches (51 cm) across.

Before you start

Make the green base first, then add the web with surface crochet. Keep those surface stitches loose enough that they do not pull the mat into a bowl. Lay it flat as you work and check the eight points before adding the final lines. Use it as decorative table linen, not protection from hot cookware.

3. Large Spider Web Wall Decoration

This big orange web fills a wall, with black spiders providing the contrast. The PDF calls it “Pin the Spider on the Web” and includes the spider body and legs as well as the web itself. Choose it when you want a single large Halloween decoration rather than a collection of little ornaments.

Yarn and hook: Medium-weight yarn; 5.5 mm hook for the web and 4.5 mm for the legs.
Size: Web: 54 inches (137 cm) across.

Before you start

The web starts with the same six-loop construction as the table topper above, then uses a different finish and adds spiders. Pick the download for the way you plan to use it. Position the finished display where the hanging yarn cannot be pulled by a pet, and choose fixings suited to the surface.

4. Spiderweb Halloween Wreath

The orange web in the middle is framed by a thick black ring, a purple center and a ruffled orange-and-black edge. A little spider hangs below. This wreath gives the web a defined place on a door and brings several textures together in one project.

Yarn and hook: Medium yarn, ruffle yarn and doubled size-10 thread; 6 mm, 3.75 mm and 2.75 mm hooks.
Size: 12-inch (30 cm) wreath form.

Before you start

Check the entire supply list before shopping. This make combines crochet with a straw wreath form, fabric and rigid adhesive-backed circles. The web is worked in doubled thread, while other parts use different hooks and yarns. Gather compatible materials before beginning the assembly.

5. Spooky Spider Web Scrubby

A white web sewn onto a black square makes this little scrubby easy to recognize. Purple edging brightens the outline. It is a compact option for someone who likes practical seasonal crochet, and it has a different feel from the smooth yarn used in the table decorations.

Yarn and hook: Textured scrubby yarn in black, purple and white; 5 mm hook.
Size: 7 inches (17.8 cm) square.

Before you start

The square and web are made separately, then sewn together. Textured yarn can hide stitch tops, so count each round before moving on. Attach the web securely and follow the yarn label for washing. This is a cleaning accessory, not a potholder.

6. Spider Webby Tote Bag

Purple crochet shows through a black web overlay on this roomy Halloween tote. A bright green spider ties in with the green base, and two black straps finish the top. The web is part of a layered construction, so the body has a background behind the open stitches.

Yarn and hook: Medium-weight yarn in green, purple and black; 5 mm hook.
Size: 12 × 12½ inches; base 5½ inches deep.

Before you start

This is an intermediate project with background rounds and overlay rounds worked in turn. Keep track of which layer you are working into; selected rounds anchor the two together. The straps also need careful placement so the bag hangs evenly. Check the joins before putting the finished tote into use.

7. Spider Web Earrings and Necklace

Purple webs and tiny black spiders turn the theme into wearable crochet. The same small web motif is used for the earrings and necklace, so this is one coordinated jewelry set rather than three separate patterns. It is an option for adding a Halloween detail to an everyday outfit.

Yarn and hook: Size-10 crochet thread; 1.5 mm steel hook; earring hooks and stiffening supplies.
Size: No fixed finished dimensions are given.

Before you start

Fine thread and a small steel hook make this a precise project even though the pieces are small. The finishing includes stiffening the webs and attaching earring hooks. Let the pieces dry fully before handling them, and keep the hanging necklace chain flexible as directed.

8. Chunky Spiderweb Crochet Blanket

Red and blue bands spread out from the center of this twelve-point blanket, with white lines forming the web. Thick yarn gives the bands a plush look and makes the white spokes easy to see. It is a bold choice for a sofa or reading spot, with enough color to stay out beyond Halloween.

Yarn and hook: Super-bulky blanket yarn; 9 mm hook.
Size: 55 inches (139.5 cm) across.

Before you start

The blanket is worked outward in rounds, then finished with white surface-crochet spokes. The pattern calls for two balls each of the listed red and blue yarns and one white; compare yardage if substituting. This is marked intermediate, so the large hook should not be mistaken for a beginner-only construction.

9. Red and Blue Spider Web Throw

Black web lines divide this red-and-blue throw into strong wedges. It looks quite different from the chunky blanket: the fabric is smoother, and the dark lines emphasize the shape of each section. Pick this version if you like making separate pieces and watching the whole design appear during assembly.

Yarn and hook: Medium-weight yarn; 6.5 mm hook.
Size: 53 inches (about 135 cm) across.

Before you start

The throw uses ten wedges, five in each main color. Black edging and seams connect them, and a center insert closes the middle. Keep the wedge edges consistent so the seams line up, then spread the joined blanket flat before finishing the outside border.

10. Spiders and Cobwebs Lace Throw

Cream yarn gives the spider theme a quieter look. Repeating lace motifs run across this rectangular throw, with pointed borders at the ends. The web effect comes from the stitch pattern rather than contrasting strands laid over a solid base. It is the choice here for someone who enjoys openwork and a repeated row sequence.

Yarn and hook: Medium-weight yarn; 5 mm hook.
Size: 35 × 40 inches (about 89 × 102 cm).

Before you start

The pattern begins with a long foundation chain and uses an eight-row repeat. Check the first full repeat before continuing so a missed space does not carry through the whole throw. Keep a row counter or written tally beside you, especially when returning to the project after a break.

11. Crochet Spider and White Web Set

A black spider with white eyes and a separate white web make a clear two-part display. The download includes both pieces, along with photographs of the spider body, assembly and the web as it grows. Make the web on its own if you want a simple pale decoration, or add the spider for a stronger contrast.

Yarn and hook: Fine yarn, listed as 350 m per 100 g; 2.5 mm hook.
Size: Measure the finished web with and without its hanging tails.

Before you start

The web expands through eight spokes and increasingly long chain arches. The spider uses two round body panels, light filling and attached legs. Treat the web and spider as separate stages of the project, and use the progress photos to check which part you are working on.

Choosing yarn for a crochet spider web

Match the yarn to the project rather than choosing one yarn for the whole collection. The thread jewelry needs a fine hook and stiffening. The scrubby relies on textured yarn. The chunky blanket uses super-bulky yarn, while most of the larger decorations and the other throws use medium-weight yarn.

Changing yarn and hook size changes both the dimensions and the look of the spaces. Work the gauge check listed in your chosen PDF and measure early. For a web that needs to fit a table or wreath center, a few extra inches can matter more than they would on a loose throw.

Getting the web to sit neatly

Count the spokes or repeated sections as you go. An extra chain arch can be hard to spot until the web is spread out. With surface crochet, pause regularly and lay the work flat: tight lines can pull a solid background inward.

Use a blocking method suited to the yarn label. Jewelry with stiffener, a wreath with a rigid center and a washable blanket all need different finishing and care. Store decorations dry, with long tails and loops gathered so they do not tangle.

For a home shared with pets, keep hanging webs, loose yarn and little spiders out of reach. These projects are decorations and accessories; they are not pet toys.

Crochet spider web questions

Which pattern is a good place to start?

The scrubby offers a compact square-and-web construction. If you already know chains, double crochet and joining rounds, read the white web section of the final download too. Small does not always mean simple: the jewelry uses a 1.5 mm hook, and the tote has two layers to manage.

Are the table topper and wall web the same pattern?

They share the same basic six-loop web construction. The topper adds a decorative outer border; the wall version includes crocheted spiders. Choose by the finished use rather than expecting two entirely different ways to build the center.

Which blanket has the fewest seams?

The chunky twelve-point blanket grows outward in rounds, and the cream lace throw is worked back and forth in one main piece. The red-and-blue wedge throw is assembled from ten sections. All three still need their finishing steps and ends woven in.

Can I make the webs in another color?

Yes. Keep a clear contrast wherever a web is worked over another color, such as the green mat or purple bag. If you substitute yarn as well as color, compare the yarn weight and gauge before assuming the finished size will stay the same.

Where are the free PDF downloads?

Use the button beneath the project you want to make. There are 11 separate downloads, and the final one includes both the black spider and white web.

Choose a place for your web

A small scrubby suits a short project list; a table topper gives you a larger seasonal display. If the blankets caught your eye, compare the chunky rounds, joined wedges and cream lace before deciding. Download one pattern, check its supplies and give that project room on your making list.
