So now we have our spider web base and I tied all my little pieces of cording off with knots. Now we're ready to make the spider body, so you'll want to slit some black yarn or again some black cording and you're going to cut several pieces. What I like to do is just fold it over and cut and then we're just going to do the same thing and flip it back over so they're all the same length. We're making the spider so you're going to want four pieces so we can have four legs on each side. If you want to give him more legs you certainly can. He could be a very leggy spider. You start off by taking the first piece and you're just going to tie a knot right in the center of it, just like that. Then you're going to start by taking your second piece and you're going to wrap it around that knot and tie another knot. You're going to continue this process until you have the body of your spider with all your legs. I'm just going to tie that on there, right over that knot, you see it's starting to form now. This on didn't cut all the way, separate that, and again I'm going to take this piece and tie it right over that knot that I have. So now I've got some more legs going, it's starting to look like a spider. My last piece, oops, that slid out of there, I'm just going to slide that back through, over my knot and now I have the body of my spider and he has all kinds of creepy, crawling legs.
