Which insect is this ?

Hi All,
Saw this one whilst out and about last Sunday.
Single small brown/yellow grub in a golden woven mesh cocoon on underside of a blade of grass. The caterpillar was still in wriggle mode, maybe still creating the cocoon ?
Beautiful structure - probably very common, but don't think I've ever seen it before.
Cheers in advance if anyone can put me straight on this.
