In some countries, spiders symbolize prosperity, it is believed that they bring good luck and guarantee success in all endeavors.






A beautiful two-colored spider with its own hands


Before we begin our master class for beginner craftswomen, let's prepare all the necessary materials for work:

  • Wire (diameter 0.2 mm);
  • About 50 cm of fishing line;
  • 5 gr each. Red and black beads № 11.

Let's get to work:
First we need to take a piece of wire and string 3 red beads on it, which should be located right in the center of our working “thread”.
Next, you will need to pass the tip of the wire through the first and second beads.
After you carefully tighten the resulting loop, you will see a tendril:



Now, on the end of the wire that is slightly longer, you need to string 4 red beads.
Once you have done this, you will need to skip the tipworking "thread" through two central beads. At this stage of our master class, it is already clear that the pattern used to create a charming spider is quite simple, and it is ideal for beginner needlewomen.
Tighten the wire and bend the resulting row of beads a little. You will get antennae like this:




Next we will use the parallel weaving technique. With its help we will need to make the head.
First, we need to string 3 beads onto one end of the wire.
Pass the other end of the working "thread" through them, moving in the opposite direction.
Once you have done this, you will need to carefully pull the wire tight.



At this stage, our spider will “acquire”eyes. In order to make them, you will also need a parallel weaving pattern. However, now you will have to put a black bead on the wire first, then a red one, and finally another black bead.


Because our spider should be voluminousnow we will place one row of beads above the other. In order to do this we will need to bend the wire loop a little while tightening it and then place the bead row so that it is on top.

After this we need to make the bottom row, consisting of 4 red beads.
We need to place it at the bottom:


Next we need to make the paws.To weave them, we will need to string 5 black beads, 2 red beads, 2 black beads, 2 red beads again, and at the end, 5 black beads again.
To weave the paws, we will use the needle technique: after passing 1 bead, we will pass the tip of the wire through the remaining 15 pieces.
Next, using the same weaving pattern, you will need to create the second paw.




Make another top row consisting of 5 red beads.
Now we again weave the bottom row of 4 beads.


After this we will need to make the next pair of legs.



We make the top row of 5 beads and the bottom row of 4 beads.


Now pay attention. We will make another pair of legs for the spider, which should be shorter than the previous ones:

Once you have finished weaving the paws, you will need to make the top row consisting of 7 red beads and the bottom row of 5 black beads.

Next we will need to make one more, last pair of legs:

25. After this we will weave the next upper row, consisting of 9 black beads and the lower one – of 6.

Then we will make another top and bottom row:

And two more largest rows: the top one will consist of 12, and the bottom one of 8 black beads.

Now the rows will gradually narrow:

The top row is 9 black beads, the bottom row is4. Next, string the next top row as follows: 3 beads of red color, 1 black and 3 red. For the bottom row: 2 beads of black color:


And the last row that completes the weaving, after which our spider will be almost ready, should be located in the middle and consist of 3 black beads.

Now we just need to secure the ends of the wire and trim them:



At this point our master class can be considered almost complete, look at what a wonderful spider made of beads we have made:

In order for the spider to hold its shape well, we still need to sew its rows together using fishing line. We will start connecting them from the last bottom row, and then move on to the upper rows.
Try to tighten the line so that it always runs straight down the middle.
After you finish connecting the rows, you will get this unusual and interesting spider:





Also, in order to learn how to make cute spiders from beads, you can watch a short training video for beginners.
Most likely spiders encountered in everyday lifelife do not cause you any special affection. But a cute, charming spider made of beads will definitely not leave you indifferent and may even become a kind of talisman for you, bringing good luck.
