All you need to do to make the bottom part of the spider is to follow the same steps as for the top part.
Pull down all the bobbins of the “milano” or spider and proceed with the “path”
TCTC with the pair on the left, leave bobbins on the left side to complete the “torchón”
Then, take leg #4 and do a twist on the pair of the right (corner of fan). Because each spider leg has 3 Twists, do a cloth stitch with the pair on the right (from the fan or “Plumilla”) and combine the legs with the stitches on the right.
Do TCTC with the bobbins on the fan:
3T 2T
————————————————————–
We need to start to work on the fan again.
The lacemaker says: “Now, we take out some pins little by little and this is an image of the work”.
To work the fan (the design with which she begins video #1
4 twists to the right or last pair of bobbins
3 twists on the pair of bobbins immediately to its left
Do CTC (cloth stitch) with last pairs and place a pin
close pin with tctc.
To return from right to left, do 4 twists to the right or last pair and 3 twists on the pair to its left.
Do CTC with these two pairs, and repeat steps of 4 twists and 3 twists with the next pair immediately to its left. This is: 3T, 3T, 4T
Finish this row by twisting 2x the pair on the left which comes from the “path” and do another ctc with this pair.
Now, place a pin, and close this stitch with TCTC.

To make the “path” to the left of the fan or “plumilla”.
She does it in Cloth Stitch (CTC).
Then the last part on the edge to the left is called the headside of lace. It’s called “Torchón” in spanish. It’s made by doing TTC pin TC or whole stitch.
She is working from top to the bottom diagonally.
She is taking the lace to the corner so that she can start to work on the “milano” or spider (araña in spanish). She completed the part of the torchón and the edge.
