👀 Attaching the Eyes

Position the eyes across the middle of the face.

  • Pointed ends face inward and slightly downward.
  • Outer upper corners angle upward.
  • Leave approximately one stitch between the closest black edges.
  • Keep the eyes large enough to dominate the face.

Pin both eyes before sewing either one permanently.

🕸️ Mask Web Embroidery

Use fine black yarn or embroidery thread.

First embroider the main radial lines:

  1. One vertical line from the top center to between the eyes.
  2. Continue that line down toward the chin.
  3. Two diagonal lines from the upper center toward the outer eye edges.
  4. Two lines from between the eyes toward the lower cheeks.
  5. One short line extending toward each temple.

Connect these lines with shallow curved stitches:

  • Two curved rows across the forehead
  • One curved row between and beside the eyes
  • One curved row across the lower face

Keep the stitches relaxed so the head does not pucker.

🧍 Compact Suit Body

🕷️ Chest Spider Emblem

  2. Add a smaller oval above it.
  3. Work four angled legs on each side.
  4. Extend the upper legs toward the shoulders and the lower legs toward the belt.

Keep the emblem centered and narrow.

❤️ Chest Web Lines

Embroider three or four black radial lines from the upper chest toward the shoulders and waist.

Add two shallow curved connecting lines.

Avoid covering the spider emblem.

🕸️ Boot Details

Using black embroidery thread:

  • Work one short vertical line down the front of each boot.
  • Add two small diagonal connecting stitches.
  • Add one narrow line around the top edge of the red section.

🪡 Main Assembly

Attach the Head

Center the head directly over the red torso.

There should be almost no visible neck.

Sew around the connection several times because the oversized head is heavier than the body.

Attach the Arms

Sew the arms high on the sides of the torso.

Angle them slightly outward and downward.

The red gloves should sit close to waist level.

Attach the Legs

Position the legs beneath the blue lower body.

Leave a small gap between them and turn the boots slightly outward.

Sew securely through the flattened blue ends.

🕸️ Shoulder and Suit Embroidery

After attaching the limbs, connect the red shoulder sections to the chest design with black web lines.

Add short black web markings to the blue-and-red boundaries only where visible. The embroidery should remain fine and uncluttered.

🔗 Reinforced Hanging Loop

Using red yarn:

Loop

Ch 10.

Join with a sl st to form a ring.

Work one round of sl st around the loop for extra strength.

FO, leaving two long tails.

Place the loop at the exact center of the head.

Pass both tails through several stitches at the top and secure them inside the head or beneath the embroidery with multiple knots.

Attach the jump ring through the crocheted loop, then connect the metal chain and keyring.

Do not attach the metal ring directly through a single head stitch.

✨ Final Shaping

  • Keep the head noticeably larger than the body.
  • Angle the eyes evenly toward the center.
  • Straighten the main vertical web line.
  • Make sure the chest emblem remains visible.
  • Turn the gloves slightly forward.
  • Angle both boots outward evenly.
  • Confirm that the keychain loop is centered.
  • Tug the hardware gently to test the attachment.

💡 Helpful Tips

  • Work with tight tension to prevent stuffing from showing.
  • Use fine embroidery thread rather than full-thickness yarn for the web.
  • Pin both eye pieces before sewing.
  • Embroider the head only after attaching the eyes.
  • Use minimal stuffing in the arms and upper legs.
  • Reinforce both the neck seam and hanging loop several times.
  • Secure embroidery ends beneath nearby appliqués whenever possible.

🧼 Care Instructions

Spot clean with a damp cloth and allow the keychain to air dry.

Avoid machine washing because the metal hardware may damage the crochet fabric.

Inspect the hanging loop periodically when the charm is used every day.
