It's a beginner friendly pattern, with plenty of instructions, and scope to make the design your own through getting creative with your gecko's markings.

]]> This is a PDF pattern to allow you to crochet your own gecko. You will also need:

  • 150g light green DK yarn
  • 20g bright red DK yarn
  • 8mm safety eyes
  • 3.5mm crochet hook
  • Toy safe stuffing
  • Pipe cleaners
  • Yarn or tapestry needle
  • Stitch markers

I used acrylic yarn to make the gecko you can see here, but she’d look awesome in a cotton blend too. Just remember to check the hook size when you choose your yarn.

Although it's no surprise that this adorable arachnids strike fear into a few hearts from their bad reputation, maybe the way to win everyone over to Team Spider is through some super cute crochet tarantula designs. 

With that in mind, I’m super excited to share my adorable crochet tarantula pattern with you! It’s beginner friendly, fun and fast to make. Perfect to decorate your house for Halloween, or celebrate your favorite invert.

I have included plenty of detailed instructions, descriptions and construction photographs to help make this not only the most be-legged creature you'll ever make, but the easiest too.

Please note that this is a set of pattern instructions, not a physical product. The pattern is written in US crochet terms. You will also need 100g of black DK yarn, 20g of cream DK yarn, a 4mm crochet hook, yarn needle, toy stuffing, a pair of 10mm safety eyes, and pipe cleaners if you want the legs to stand up.

If you have any questions whilst you crochet your way through the pattern, just drop me a message on the email address given at the end of the instructions. I'll be happy to help!
