This spider web table topper is awesome! My brother in law loves Halloween, and I think he would love this too! It would be difficult, but amazing if you alternate colors between black and orange. There are so many different ways you could use this table topper. I am thinking it would be a great prop for a newborn baby photo shoot!

Spiders are kind of low on my list of "critters". I respect them and so long as they select to live outside, we get along well. I even admire there handy work when I see it outside. So it is strange that I would like this item. It is a beautiful Halloween decoration, but I think in a different shade it would fit nicely over a round side table.

I really do not know why I like this, but I do. I respect spiders from a distance and so long as they remain outside, we are good. This web is adorable. I know just the person to crochet this for and I have plenty of time to get it done. Thanks for the pattern.

This is a very easy project, and since it is such an open pattern that it will make up easy. I know it was made as a table op per but I am going to hang it on the wall or across the door way for Halloween. Thank you for offering this great idea.

This would definitely be a hit at a Halloween party! It would look great on your table as well as hanging it up in a corner of a doorway. Hang one in a window and on your front door to greet your trick or treaters. I agree that a black or white web would be great colors to use.

This is a fairly big pattern, but it looks very simple and quick to make because of the spaced out webbing. Id like to try this for next Halloween. I agree with princess6860504 that a different color would be more appropriate for a spiders web (for example, black or white). On the other hand, the orange brings out the Halloween theme and as a table decoration, I think its not a bad choice. It might be a good furniture cover too (to place on the back of a couch or chair).

This "Spider Web Table Topper" is really cool! I am totally a Halloween freak. I think I'd rather like this better in black with some sparkle to it. There are so many yarns that are available nowadays. I think a softer yarn would let this topper drape better, instead of using the Super Saver yarn. But it's still so cool!
