Dear users, dear authors,
here are our top 3 authors. Downloading is definitely worth it.

@Authors,
If you use the small gray arrow on your shop page to sort the patterns by “generally popular,” you’ll find your personal top 3. You can then feature them here with a link, image, and description.

Still unchanged in 1st place is Rudolph - The Red Nosed Moose. Admittedly, the season isn't exactly right, but Christmas isn't that far away again either. Maybe some of you also know what it's like to put things off, and then it can be helpful to start Christmas projects now. That way Rudolph will definitely be finished before Christmas, or you can simply crochet him without the red nose as a moose :)

   This way to Rudolph

2nd place : with this cute crinkle cloth in the design of Giraffe Glückskind, you can give new parents a lovely gift for the birth of their baby.

This way to the crinkle cloth   

And last but not least: 3rd place for the perennial favorite Mathilde the Unicorn - to crochet as a music box or cuddly toy:

   This way to the unicorn

All my patterns are suitable for ambitious beginners, and for each one I used a cotton yarn with a yardage of 125m/50g and a size 3 crochet hook. 

For more info, just take a look in my Shop or at the individual patterns! 

In first place in your favorites is LaPuLi, a knitted triangular shawl made of linen. Of course, it can also be knitted with other yarn
https://www.crazypatterns.net/de/items/18213/gestricktes-einfaches-dreieckstuch-lapuli

You need 300 g of yarn with a yardage of approx. 200 m per 100 g
The patterns are explained in detail and are absolutely suitable for beginners.








In second place among my patterns is the Elfenreigen lace scarf. 
The pattern includes 2 versions. 
For one, you need 100 g of lace yarn with a yardage of 800 m, and for the 2nd version, twice that amount
https://www.crazypatterns.net/de/items/29222/gestrickter-laceschal-elfenreigen
The pattern is explained in detail and also shown as a chart. You will need a little concentration for this. 





In third place is my Simply Loop, and as the name says, it is very simple. You only need to know knit and purl stitches, yarn overs, and how to knit 2 stitches together
https://www.crazypatterns.net/de/items/26527/gestrickter-einfacher-loop-simply-loop
You need 2 x 50 g with a yardage of 160 m per 50 g. But you can very easily make it larger.

Top 1 - The round collar and shoulder warmer - ideal for beginners

This round collar is very easy to knit with just one skein of cotton yarn. It’s best to knit yourself several of them in different colors right away.

Top 2 - The growing pinafore dress for toddlers

This pinafore dress fits ages 1.5 to 5 and is a true transformation artist. Well suited for beginners with the usual basic skills. There are no seams; the dress is knitted all in one piece from the bottom up.

Top 3 - The tissue box with butterflies and hearts

Here, the ugly tissue boxes are decoratively hidden away and can even sit on the coffee table - for the environmentally conscious, as a replacement for napkins.

This pretty cover is also sure to bring lots of joy as a gift. You can creatively crochet up lots of leftover yarn here. A very nice project for advanced beginners.

Top 1. Colorful Easter Eggs
Colorful Easter eggs are a small and lovely touch for Easter. The simple Bruges lace crochet technique creates a beautiful
fresh spring feel. An excellent window or door decoration for Easter, or
even as a small gift!
The Easter egg measures approx. 7 x 9 cm, plus a loop of approx. 7 cm. Very little yarn is needed to make an Easter egg,
so these can be crocheted from yarn scraps. A perfect way to use up leftover yarn!

Top 2. Colorful Easter Eggs in a Star Pattern

Top 3. Door/Window Wreath "Flower Wreath"

, suitable for every season, especially Easter. The wreaths shown (without the decorative ribbon) measure approximately 20 cm x 17.5 cm.

The COLORFUL BUNNIES are by far in first place on your popularity list. They’re especially popular now before Easter, because they’re perfect as Easter decorations, whether on an Easter tree, in an Easter basket, as table decorations, or as flower picks. Plus, they’re a great way to use up your leftover yarn.

The FLUFFY CUDDLY KITTY comes in second place. Isn’t it cute? It definitely wants to move in with you. All you have to do is crochet it. You should download the pattern right away!

I’ll start with 3rd place  



My 5th Granny has worked its way up to 3rd place. This Granny is the same size as my other Grannies and is a lovely addition.



2nd place goes to my knitting pattern for a scarf with a beautiful stitch pattern. It’s knitted using only knit and purl stitches and is a lot of fun to make. I’d say: Watch out—it might be addictive.

1st place is still held by my pattern for baby booties. 



Here, the bottom part of the bootie is knitted with circular needles, and the top edge is then crocheted. The pattern is very detailed, with lots of pictures, and easy to follow.

For each individual item, you’ll find additional information, for example about the yarn.

1st place the booties

2nd place the great scarf

3rd place the crochet pattern for the Granny square

Winter is almost over, but my snowflakes  are still in 3rd place .



The 18 snowflake templates are designed for tissue paper or similarly thin paper. The finished snowflakes are about 20 cm in size and are cut from folded squares of paper. The instructions include drawings and descriptions that explain how it all works, and there’s also a folding guide included.

Still in 1st place: Loop ANSGAR—the loop for big boys and real men! Scarves are so yesterday; today, “men” wear loops! The textured cable pattern looks great with both solid-colored and variegated yarns, and since it uses only knit and purl stitches, it’s not hard to knit. You can follow either the knitting chart or the written pattern description—whichever you prefer!

So grab your needles—here’s the knitting pattern: ANSGAR Loop—The Loop for Men 

Have fun knitting!

2nd place at fil-art-aue goes to—of course matching the cowl: the ANSGAR men's hat!! Here, too, with an exciting cable pattern, this time knitted in the round! Both the cable pattern itself and the perfect pattern transitions from the ribbed cuff to the cable pattern and from the cable pattern to the decreases are provided both as a knitting chart and in written instructions, so everyone can reach the goal without any trouble!

Get the knitting pattern for this great hat here: ANSGAR Hat

Happy knitting from

Ranked 3rd at fil-art-aue is the popular Loop ANOUK! It’s a wonderful project for beginners, as the pattern consists only of knit and purl stitches. The effect, however, is anything but beginner-like! You can knit it using either the knitting chart or the written description of the pattern, so everyone is guaranteed to get the desired result!
