Inspired by this post by @[email protected] , I had to make a start on my own spiderweb top last week. I'm a bit older and...let's say "slightly" wider...than the target audience so honestly not sure if it's going to work or not but it's so fast and cheap to make I figured why not!

The dummy was already wearing that hat, so it's just coincidence, but I will 100% be wearing those together as it's clearly fate.

Just a note for anyone else trying to follow the video tutorial linked in the OP, the white version that the designer is wearing has 11 segments (like mine) but if you follow the instructions she gives in the video you'd end up with 12. So just personal preference and something to bear in mind, there!

Hopefully I can get this done pretty quickly in between other projects. What else are you all crocheting this Wednesday?

No worries! If loosening up isn't enough you can always try just going up a hook size or two, no need to necessarily get new yarn.

My instinct now is to challenge you to a race, but I'm exhausted from life stuff this week and don't think I have it in me to be competitive ๐Ÿ˜‚
