Reminder for Father’s Day :-)
With a simple but very effective pattern.

Size: 40/41 (42/43)

There’s another crochet pattern for a new flower child in my shop!
The flower elf Forget-Me-Not is dressed like a little ballerina and wears a wreath of light blue forget-me-not flowers in her blonde hair. Of course, she has her flower with her again.
Like my other flower children, she has flexible arms and legs reinforced with wire and is about 12 cm tall. You can crochet her from just a little leftover yarn.

Here’s what the crocheted bodysuit for a small dress-up doll looks like. It takes less than 5 g of yarn and a 1.25 or 1.5 crochet hook. My crochet pattern also includes a chart. You can work from the chart or from my written, illustrated pattern.

The finished bodysuit crosses over the back and ties in a knot. I sewed a bow onto the neckline. This elegant little piece can be worn in bed in the evening after the daytime outfit has been taken off, or at the beach.

I hope you enjoy the pattern. Yours, Ina

As the saying goes, "April showers bring May flowers..♪♫".

So it’s also time to refresh the decor, and fittingly, I have a brand-new fresh summer decoration for you in my shop stjerne61.

Crocheted in classic blue & white, this hanging decoration radiates maritime charm and brings a little vacation feeling into your home.
Leftover yarn and the appropriate crochet hook are enough to make it. For the decoration shown, I used cotton and hook size 3.

Crochet Pattern: Decorative Fisherman’s House


As always, the pattern is beginner-friendly and written without abbreviations.

Brand new in May!

The poncho sweater made from cozy chenille yarn will become the new favorite piece in your wardrobe!
By using cotton chenille, this poncho sweater won’t make you overheat; instead, it helps regulate temperature, making it suitable for cooler summer days too!
If chenille isn’t your thing, you can also easily knit the sweater from your favorite yarn.

The poncho sweater comes in one size (36-46), but can also be customized.

The knitting pattern is designed for ambitious beginners and includes detailed written instructions and photos.

Want to surprise someone with an unusual gift? This explosion box is perfect for that: On its many surfaces, you can glue on photos and pictures or write nice or funny sayings. The pockets are great for hiding vouchers or cash gifts. In the middle, there is a small box with a lid for something sweet or a small gift such as a lucky charm, key ring, or something similar.


 
This explosion box is made from photo cardstock and measures approx. 10 x 10 x 10 cm. The walls of the inner boxes measure approx. 9 x 9 cm, 8 x 8 cm, 7 x 7 cm and 6 x 6 cm; the small inner box measures approx. 5 x 5 x 5 cm. Of course, you can adapt this box to your needs, for example by leaving out some inner layers or making the box smaller: for your own projects, you will find suitable lids for all inner layers among the templates. The box is very easy to make and is also well suited for craft beginners.

Do you love seasonal displays? Then the Dandelion Flower Child is a must-have!

It’s about 12 cm tall, wears green overalls, and has a yellow, tousled hairstyle. It loves nothing more than lying under one of its flowers (about 12 cm tall) and daydreaming.
If you want to crochet it, all you need are a few bits of leftover yarn in skin tone, yellow, light green, and medium green, as well as some white fringe yarn. In addition to a crochet hook (2.5 mm), you’ll also need some toy stuffing, craft glue, floral wire, and chenille wire.
You can download the crochet pattern right here!

May brings new beginnings—and that goes for the Atsu crochet bag, too.
An old CD provides a sturdy bottom.
Using a total of 65 g of 4-ply yarn (50% cotton, 50% cotton), you can crochet Atsu, which has a diameter of about 12.5 cm at the bottom and about 9 cm at the top, and is approximately 16 cm tall.

The 68 cm long cord is made using a knitting dolly.

This cute sleeping bag for toddlers’ very small dolls and teddy bears (20 cm) has just moved into my shop—and in 2 versions: one with buttons and one without. Both patterns are available together as a set.

This is sure to make your child or grandchild even happier to go to bed. After all, their little favorite is already tucked into the sleeping bag.

Both sleeping bag versions are easy to knit, as long as you’ve knitted before. Colorful leftover yarn is enough here, and you can get very creative with it.

May is still feeling more like April right now.



So something warm is still very useful.

Here’s a knitting pattern for a cable-look scarf, knitted using only knit and purl stitches. No cable needle is needed.

The pattern repeats over 6 rows and is easy to follow. You’ll need about 200 grams of yarn.
