@Authors,

Don’t forget the link and image, as well as the usual info.

The “Blätterrauschen” cowl is much easier than it looks.
There are patterns for different yarn yardages, ranging from 300 to 360 meters, and you’ll only need 100 grams.

The pattern is explained row by row and is also illustrated with a chart.

 
Every cat lover should have this black cat at home! With her bright green eyes, she seems to be watching you. She feels especially at home on a windowsill or an armchair.

You don’t need to get many materials for this decorative cat. You’ll probably have most of them at home.
You’ll need:

• approx. 60 g cotton yarn (e.g., Catania LL approx. 125 m/50 g) in black
• 2.5 mm crochet hook
• 1 thick sewing needle for weaving in ends
• 1 pair of cat eyes, diameter 12 mm
• leftover cotton yarn in white, pink
• polyester fiberfill for stuffing

The cat is crocheted with single crochet stitches in rows following a graphical counting chart.

Dish sponges made from Creative Bubble are so decorative that you’ll hardly want to use them!
But don’t worry, they’re very durable and sturdy. And since you can machine-wash them at 60° without them losing their beauty, and because they dry quickly, they always stay hygienically clean. You can also use them as bath or shower sponges. Together with a fragrant shower gel or exfoliating gel, they make a lovely little gift.

Just in time for the season, my shop now offers the crochet pattern for a
Sunflower Dish Sponge 

You can crochet it quickly, so it’s also suitable as a "last-minute gift". All you need are:
approx. 20 g sponge yarn in yellow (Rico Creative Bubble)
approx. 10 g sponge yarn in brown (Rico Creative Bubble)
approx. 5 g sponge yarn in green (Rico Creative Bubble)
4.0 mm crochet hook
1 thick sewing needle for weaving in the ends

This weekend is another great opportunity to stock up on gift packaging. Right at the start of the weekend, I’ve uploaded the pattern for these four little boxes .
 


The boxes are made of photo cardstock, are cube-shaped, and have edge lengths of approximately 3, 4, 5, and 6 cm. They’re very easy to make and are also great for crafting with kids.

The cute sloths are a great weekend project!
They are perfect for cuddling and loving, as they are crocheted from soft acrylic yarn! The pattern shows two different versions (sitting and hanging), is described and illustrated in great detail, and is therefore well suited for beginners with some experience.

Here’s another animal that would love to be crocheted over the weekend:
This cute little calf

I used acrylic yarn here too to make it extra cuddly!
The eyes are crocheted as well, so even small children can cuddle it safely!

The pattern is designed for experienced beginners, with step-by-step instructions in both written and photographic form.

Crochet Pattern for a Summer Cowl 

Crocheted from a lightweight summer yarn, it’s the perfect companion. Start in the morning, and you might even be able to wear it by evening.

Basic knowledge of single crochet, double crochet, and chain stitches is required. The pattern consists of two rows and is easy to follow.

This sweet newborn baby jacket made of cotton (or wool) is a lovely project for somewhat advanced knitters. It works up quickly and will later fit the baby’s doll.

Doll clothes are always a good idea! Here you can start preparing Christmas gifts already. After all, doll mommies are very happy when they can dress their favorite just as prettily as a real baby.

Both models are also easy for beginners with knitting experience(!) to make. They are knitted with raglan from the top down and fit dolls about 45–50 cm tall.

Always lovely as a little weekend project: doll clothes. You don’t need much yarn, and a doll dress is quickly crocheted or knitted. In my shop, you’ll find many different models: dresses, pants, sweaters, cardigans, bags, hats—there’s something for every taste.

All models are suitable for knitting and crochet beginners, because I always explain and show everything very precisely and in detail. The doll mommies are sure to be happy about having a selection, so they can dress and undress their dolls to their hearts’ content. You’ll find more detailed information, more pictures and examples, as well as the pattern, by clicking on the headings.

I hope you enjoy the patterns and have a lovely weekend.

Warm regards from Ina

My customers’ favorites are:

1. The crocheted princess dress



2. The little crocheted summer dress



3. The knitted ball gown

I’d like to recommend this pretty tea light holder in soft colors as a peaceful weekend activity. This almost meditative project will help you relax and recharge for the weekend.



The tea light holder is made of cardstock and measures approximately 13 x 5.5 x 11 cm. With a little experience using a craft knife, it’s very easy to make.

This shawl will make you look forward to summer: a quick and easy-to-crochet triangular shawl—airy, light, and chic! It is crocheted from the side and is symmetrical. It is narrower than the well-known triangular shawls, making it very versatile: e.g., as a scarf, shawl, hip scarf, quickly wrapped top, loop, etc.

Here’s the pattern

Bracelets made from PET bottles - chic, lightweight, comfortable, and always eye-catching! Bangles or bracelets are the perfect addition to any outfit.
Here I’ll show you a special method for quickly and easily making stylish bangles with little
material.

All you need is an old PET bottle and some yarn - and
in no time you’ll have a truly unique piece of jewelry. Also great as a
gift or little present to bring along.
