You'll need a black sweatshirt, preferably hooded, and a pair of black pants or a black
leotard and tights. Or you can use a black shirt and black slack's. You'll also need 2
pair of black tube socks, nylon or polyester works great, but cotton can be used also.
For larger people you can use black ladies stockings or nylons. You simply stuff the
socks with cotton batting, or cloth material to make the spider legs. Sew a pair of
stuffed panty hose to each side of the leotard or shirt. Attach the panty hose with
about 8 inches (less for little people) of black twine between the legs/arms of the
stuffed pantyhose to hold them apart. The effect is that you have 3 arms on each side
of you. Be sure to arrange the string so the legs are about 8" apart. You could also
fashion a black hat or wear a set of plastic bug feelers that can be bought at a
Halloween supplies store.
