With eight legs reaching out in every direction and two tiny red eyes, this spider is one of my favorite Halloween fuse bead patterns! It looks fierce on paper, but it comes together fast: each square on the grid is one bead, so count your rows carefully before you start. I like to place the body first, right in the center of a square pegboard, then build the legs outward from there — they fall into place naturally. When you iron it, slide your parchment paper on top and press in small circular motions so every leg fuses solidly to the body. Once it’s cooled and peeled off, hang it in a window, clip it to a treat bag, or string it up with your other decorations for a Halloween look that’s spooky-cute, not nightmare-inducing!
