Black Spider for the Yellow Loom

Instructions

1. Body: Knit 25 rows in the round as you would for a hat, using 2 strands of yarn (leave a long tail on the winding peg to use in sewing up the bottom of the spider body).

2. Take the knit off the loom as you would a hat (take a 25 inch piece of yarn and thread it through top and bottom to remove from loom). Put stuffing in while still on the loom.

3. Legs: Make 8. Using the yellow loom, knit back and forth on 8 pegs for 47 rows and leave a long piece of yarn on the winding peg to sew up the legs. Take each leg off the loom as you would a hat. Fold legs horizontally and sew up

4. Take each leg, fold in half, then whip stitch for a fold or bend in the leg. Turn spider over and sew four legs on each side.

5. Hot glue two large wiggly eyes on top of spider near the front. (Use the size eyes you like, spiders have small eyes, but larger eyes show up better)

6. Note from Clella: This spider would be way cute if you used one strand of fun fur to make it hairy. Sit Samuel in the pumpkin patch of knitted pumpkins from our web-site here at Provo Craft. Have a Happy Halloween!

Floppy Hat

Provo Craft Tools Knifty Knitter Round Loom (green) hook yarn needle Other Supplies 1 skein of Fun Fur by Lion Brand Yarn (color: Indigo) 1 skein of Wool-Ease by Lion Brand Yarn (color: Blue Heather or Denim Step 1: This hat is knit according to the basic hat instructions, which are found in the packaging for the round looms. Begin by using one strand of Wool-Ease yarn and one strand of Fun Fur. Hold the two strands together and treat them like one strand. E wrap and knit 20 rows. Make the brim by pulling up the first row and putting it back on the loom. Knit off. (Detailed instructions and images for this step are included in the round loom packaging.)

Step 2: Replace the Fun Fur strand with another strand of Wool-Ease and knit 10 rows.

Step 3: Replace one of the Wool-Ease strands with the Fun Fur strand, and knit for another 10 rows.

Step 4: Replace the Fun Fur strand with the other strand of Wool-Ease, and knit for another 10 rows.

Step 5: Replace one of the Wool-Ease strands with the Fun Fur strand, and knit the last 10 rows. Sew the stitches off of the loom using the yarn needle and the Wool-Ease yarn (see round loom instructions for details). Pull up tight and tie the top (see round loom instructions for finishing a hat).

Step 6: The hat will flop over for a free and fun look. It will be about 14" long from the bottom of the brim to the top of the hat.

Furry Leg Warmers

Instructions

1. Use two strands of yarn as one (one strand of Lemon and one strand of Spring Green). E wrap (wrapping loops on pegs that look like series of lowercase cursive es) two times around loom and knit off (pulling bottom loop over top loop and off peg).

2. Knit 10 rows and carefully reach inside loom and place loops from first row back over pegs. This makes brim or cuff for top of leg warmer. Knit this row.

3. Continue knitting until leg warmer is total of 14" long (or desired length).

4. Using crochet hook, take first two loops off loom and pull second loop through first. Continue on around to take all loops off loom this way.

5. Knit second leg warmer using directions above. Add beads, button, bells, or whatever you would like to decorate.
