spider web. If you can chain and single crochet it will be easy for you to learn how to crochet the spider stitch.

Mattress Stitch
The mattress stitch, also known as the invisible seam or invisible weaving, is a very flexible seam that works best for sewing garment pieces together because it makes for a flat, invisible seam.
