This is a PDF crochet pattern with pictures, showing how to make your very own Woolly the Spider style toy from the popular children’s TV show ‘Woolly & Tig’.

Official toys from the show won’t be available until later in the year, so last Christmas I was asked if I could make one for my cousin’s daughter and I happily obliged. It took quite a few weeks and a lot of unraveling, but finally I designed a pattern that I’m happy with and by all accounts a lot of children are happy with too! I posted pictures on Facebook and the requests are rolling in! I might have to make one for myself, as it really hurts to give him away, he’s so cute and huggable!

He’ll even stand all all-eights unsupported – no wires, just stuffing.
The height is approx. 17cm head-to-toe when standing, body diameter approx. 15cm.

You’ll need:
DK yarns: <100g blue eyelash yarn
3mm hook; 4mm hook; yellow, black, red and white felt; toy stuffing; glue; needle; transparent thread.

The pattern is suitable for intermediate crocheters and I’ll be happy to help with any questions.
