To craft the Giant Stone Weapons, you first need to find the Temple of Hecate, marked near my icon on the map above. There is a large gate here, the gateway to the full game, and a group of statues encircling a chest.

Open the Treasure Chest to obtain a recipe for the Giant Stone Sword, Giant Stone Bow, and Giant Stone Spear. You then need to use the Crafting Station to make each of the weapons.
