@Authors,

The cold seasons will be starting again soon, and Poncho Zauberland would be perfect for them. You can make it in any size you like with a cozy warm turtleneck or with an open neckline.

No annoying sewing together; it is worked in one piece, so it’s ideal for gradient yarns, and as a bonus you get the patterns for a matching hat and wrist warmers.

You can make it using written instructions and/or a crochet chart.

Click here and you’ll go directly to the pattern:



The amount of material needed depends on the hook/yarn size, the poncho length/hat size/hand size.
Poncho:
  • Here, approx. 2250 m/585 g) of 4-ply, plied yarn was used (without collar)
    210 m/55 g of yarn was used for the collar (depending on the height, of course)
  • Crochet hook suitable for the yarn, here size 3.5
  • 4 stitch markers
Hat:
Example here → head circumference = 56 cm, hat height = 22 cm.
  • Here, approx. 210 m/55 g of 4-ply yarn was used
  • Crochet hook suitable for the yarn, here size 3.5
Wrist warmers:
  • Here, approx. 45 g (approx. 175 m) of 4-ply yarn was used (for both wrist warmers)
  • Crochet hook suitable for the yarn, here sizes 3 and 3.5

I'm just thinking about which of my projects is the most creative and exciting. These three things come to mind right away ...

1. A rug made from knitting dolly cords
This is really fun, and every rug turns out differently because you make and combine the knitting dolly cords in different colors. We make the knitting dolly cords with a crank knitting dolly—that’s much faster than with older models. I explain and show you exactly how it’s done.





2. Handmade buttons in all sizes and colors

Kids like this too. You can also make them for the kids out of chocolate or marzipan. I always need them for my handmade projects. You need a mold and molding compound. It’s really fun.



3. The Colorful Rug

Another rug that was a lot of fun for me because it’s so beautifully colorful. In every round, you already look forward to the next color and are excited to see how it will look in the end. An eye-catcher in any children’s room or bathroom.




I hope you have lots of fun with the project of your choice and enjoy an exciting, creative time.
Warm regards from Ina

You can create a color gradient to suit your own taste, use up leftover yarn, and keep things tidy all at once with the crochet pattern for the cable storage basket.

I always love it when craft patterns leave plenty of room for personal creativity, so that everyone who follows them can identify with the finished work.

  Kasperle puppets
are wonderfully suited for this. You’ll receive a detailed pattern that you can follow exactly. By varying colors, hairstyles, facial expressions, and so on, you can then crochet Kasperle puppets that bear your own personal touch. The hand puppets pictured above are part of a value pack of patterns for Kasperle figures. They’re also available individually.
You can find even more patterns for hand puppets at this link: Hand Puppets by ruthk


  You can also let your creativity run wild with finger puppets
. Above, you’ll see a value pack with crochet patterns for 10 mini-sized Kasperle figures. They’re especially suitable for small children who can’t yet hold the larger hand puppets properly. This is a great project for using up small amounts of leftover yarn. Here, too, you can experiment with colors, materials, and hairstyles, customizing the figures however you like and giving them your own personal touch.

And for those who are already thinking about Christmas and want to get a little creative, I recommend the
  Figures for the Christmas Nativity Scene
Everything mentioned above applies here as well. Let your imagination and creativity run wild! In my shop, you’ll find the Holy Family pattern bundle as well as patterns for other nativity figures.

So get to work—have fun and success!

When it comes to food for the play kitchen, you’ll surely think of even more things the dolls might enjoy. You’ll find a great selection right here. For example, the doll can eat pasta, toast with butter, a fried egg, and even vegetables.

Everything is very easy to crochet, even for beginners (with basic skills). Since all the pieces are small, you can even use leftover yarn.

You can get wonderfully creative with the gnome family and their gnome house. Each gnome gets a different face, depending on your mood. These gnomes are perfect for an Advent calendar, because they can be crocheted in different sizes and then filled with gifts. The house can then be given at Christmas with a larger gift.

Everything is very easy to crochet and a lot of fun. This is a great way to put those leftover cotton yarn scraps from summer to good use.

Note: The house (storage basket) and the gnomes are also available individually in my shop.

These door guards make a wonderful gift, especially for children. They make sure the room is only entered when the owl or the bear is showing its "FREE" sign. 

Also very useful when doors aren’t locked for small children. That way everyone knows whether someone is on the toilet or not. ;-)

Both are easy to crochet and can be customized. The best thing to do is get them here as a value set, so you’ll have really unusual Christmas gifts that will be a big hit.

To the crochet pattern - value set Guard Owl and Guard Bear




Note: Both are also available individually in my shop.

Jewelry is undoubtedly a creative way to highlight your personal style and complete an outfit.
especially when it’s handmade.

Making jewelry is much easier than it might seem at first glance. 

This beaded bracelet can also be worn as a choker (a very short necklace) and is super easy for beginners to recreate.
The pattern shows each step with pictures and detailed explanations.




Until September 20, this pattern and all other shop items are available with a 30% shop discount to celebrate my milestone birthday.
