Top 3 Authors in July: This Is Fun.

Dear users, dear authors,
here you’ll find top patterns to sweeten your summer.
Get started now.

@Authors,
You can present your 3 general top 3 patterns here, plus your 3 current top 3 patterns—that’s up to 6 patterns in total.
If you sort your shop page by generally popular or currently popular using the small gray arrow, you’ll find the matching patterns. Don’t forget the link and image, as well as the usual info.

Currently popular in my shop are value bundles.

At TOP 1 is the value set in the Giraffe Glückskind design. You get three patterns in this set, which are cheaper than buying them individually. Included are a cuddly toy that also has room for a music box, a crinkle cloth, and a stick rattle.

   

Here’s the link to the Giraffe value set

In another value bundle, my current TOP 2, you get the pattern for a total of 10 different types of fruit and can use up your leftover yarn in all kinds of colors.

    Here’s the link to the fruit basket

TOP 3 among the currently popular patterns is a baby blanket with lots of heart. With the many color combinations of gradient yarns and bobble yarns, it makes a wonderful new baby gift for both girls and boys. 

Here’s the link to the baby blanket   


All patterns are suitable for ambitious beginners, and I’m available for questions and happy to help. For exact material details, please check the individual patterns.

And now have fun crocheting!

The order of the generally popular patterns remains unchanged:

My TOP 1 is already getting you a little ready for Christmas. With Rudolph - The Red-Nosed Moose , you can crochet a dangling figure that is large enough to hold the musical mechanism for a music box . It is also ideal as a simple cuddly toy and a long-lasting companion for little ones.

for the pattern TOP 2 is still the crinkle cloth in the Giraffe Glückskind design. You can use it to give expectant parents a lovely gift for the birth and prepare it in advance, since it is suitable for both girls and boys. Without crinkly foil, it can also be crocheted as a cuddle cloth .

The crinkle cloth in the Mathilde the Unicorn design is also a lovely gift for a birth. This lets you follow the never-ending unicorn trend - maybe that's why it is at TOP 3 :)

These patterns are suitable for ambitious beginners , and I’m happy to answer any questions you may have. For materials, I used a cotton yarn with a meterage of 125 m/50 g and a size 3 crochet hook.

Have fun crocheting!

These 3 patterns from my shop are currently popular

In 1st place is the LiMaZo Scarf knitting pattern




This great pattern is knitted using only knit and purl stitches, and no cable needle is needed.

Second place is currently held by the small triangular shawl “Hourglass”



This project requires knowledge of knit and purl stitches, yarn overs, knitting stitches together, and increasing stitches.

Third place goes to another knitting pattern. My “Night in Toronto” scarf is still very popular.



Here, too, only knit and purl stitches are used to create this great pattern. What makes it special is that the beginning and end are worked to a point. 

These 3 patterns from my shop are popular overall



A pattern for booties. This pattern requires knowledge of knitting and crochet. The little shoes are knitted with a set of double-pointed needles, and the top edge is crocheted with post double crochet.


A spot near the very top goes to Granny Number 5



This is one granny square out of a total of 6, all of which have the same number of stitches in the last round. That makes them easy to combine with each other (e.g., for a lovely blanket)

And also represented in this TOP 3 is my knitting pattern for the scarf "Nights in Toronto" 



This pattern is also a lovely project for knitting beginners.

The currently most popular patterns are ...

... currently in 1st place is the triangular shawl "Netzwerk"
Clever and right on trend with its popular 3D look, this airy, lightweight triangular shawl is a delight.
Thanks to the lace pattern, it drapes beautifully and can be worn in many
variations. It is crocheted from the side and is slightly
asymmetrical.

Here’s the pattern



********************************************************************************************

... and in 2nd place, the shopping net "Lebe, Liebe, Lache" brings good cheer
It helps avoid plastic, is quick and easy to crochet, and is always an eye-catcher.  Also great as a gift for many occasions.
The pattern is described in detail with a counting pattern, crochet chart
and lots of pictures, making it very suitable for beginners.

Here’s the pattern



******************************************************************************************
... and third place goes to my brand-new tunic "Mayla"
This wonderfully lightweight and airy tunic is quick and easy to crochet.
The pattern is really fun—since you mostly insert the hook only under the chain stitches, it works up easily, is easy on the eyes, and after a few rows it almost runs by itself.
With the separate little tie belt, you have different styling and wearing options, as shown in the photos.

Here’s the pattern




******************************************************************************************

The following patterns of mine are enduringly and generally popular:

The number 1 in my shop is this beautiful triangular shawl
It is airy and light, yet elegant and wonderfully soft to
snuggle into and feel good in. It is easy to crochet—so absolutely
beginner-friendly and an absolute classic.

Here’s the pattern



************************************************************************

2nd place goes to the sweet and versatile little wings ...
You can use these beautiful wings / angel wings for Christmas, weddings,
First Communion, baptisms, etc., whether as a small guest favor,
pendant, table decoration, keepsake, and so on.

The wings are quick to crochet and look very beautiful from both sides (the back looks almost like knit stitches).

You receive a detailed PDF pattern with text and numerous step-by-step photos, so it’s also doable for beginners.

Here’s the pattern



********************************************************************************************

... and with over 1000 sales, 3rd place belongs to this beautiful soul warmer / cardigan
A wonderful basic piece for spring. Just slip it on, snuggle in, and feel good.

The pattern is simple and works up quickly. In the basic pattern,
you only insert the hook into chain-stitch arches, so you can work on the
soul warmer nicely on the side while watching TV or chatting over coffee.

Here’s the pattern

My most popular patterns are:
