The [npc=11738]s in Silithus have about the highest drop rate for Ironweb Spider Silk and they are plentiful there. In the same place are many of the [npc=11880]s and [npc=11881]s who drop a lot of Runecloth which is common in the same tailoring recipes.
LBRS is clearly the best place to grind these. The droprate is slightly lower (10% instead of 13%), but you kill the mobs by the dozen, and you'll sometimes even get 2 ironweb silks on a single mob.
Just as a quick guide :
Get in LBRS
Walk up the stairs and turn right, jump to the platform with the 4 guys and 2 worgs, go in through the corridor there, then as soon as you're out and facing another pack of mobs in a large open space, go right and jump down to the ledge along the wall. Keep going down till you're next to the mass of humanoids down there, then go right towards the spider area. Clear, loot, keep going up after the spider area towards the pack of ogres. Right before you reach them, jump down on the right and go straight, you'll be able to get back up, reset, and restart.You should get around 5 silks per clear, 10 minutes per clear.
Hope that was clear enough :p
PS : Plenty of runecloth on all the humanoids there as well.
Went to Deadwind pass today and found [npc=51987] like was said. If you go to a spot in the pass called "The Vice", there are two Ogre camps direct across from each other. Right side camp has (3) [npc=51987] and the one on the left spawns (4) [npc=51987]. They will near instantly respawn for a bit when killing them and then after awhile, it will take a few minutes for them to respawn. This goes in cycles. For me, it bears LBRS, since you don't have to keep reseting an instance or making a run for it. Just run back and forth a few steps between the two camps. I got 14 Ironweb Spider Silk in about 16 minutes.
