Mimetidae egg sacs
Buckley, Pierce County, Washington, USA

Size: 3-4mm
Interesting one. The spider on the top right is T. gigantea, but the web belonged to a hobo as their are two hobo egg sacs in it, one visible, wrapped in debris, then silk. A second one cropped out. The Pirate spider sac is on the right, inside the odd circle created by dust and collapsing web.
