Maybe you feel like crocheting a few lucky charms for New Year’s Eve during the holidays? If you give them away for New Year, they’re sure to be a hit:

 
The little lucky pigs are crocheted around an empty capsule from a surprise egg. That way they don’t need to be stuffed, and they still have room in their bellies for a little New Year’s Eve surprise.
Here is the pattern:  Crochet lucky pigs.



You can use these crochet appliqués in many different ways: for invitation or place cards, as table scatter decorations, as refrigerator magnets, gift tags, or plant picks. They are quick to crochet and ideal for using up the tiniest amounts of yarn.

And if the lucky charm should also be useful, then crochet this cute lucky ladybug from sponge yarn as a dish sponge or bath sponge. It can be washed at 60° and dries quickly. This prevents bacteria from multiplying, and it can be used again and again.
This way to the crochet pattern: Crochet ladybug dish sponge.

Doll clothes are a great way to relax. The best part: they are finished quickly, and you can also use up leftover yarn. These doll clothes fit dolls approx. 45-50 cm tall, so they also fit Baby Born.

These doll clothes also fit small newborns or preemies. For doll moms, they are something special because they look like clothes for a real baby.

When the doll is lying in the sleeping bag, the doll mom will surely be much more willing to go to bed too.

What could be nicer at Christmastime than little hand-crocheted angels! White crochet thread or even leftover crochet thread, a crochet hook,
a few beads and a little time. The decorations are made in no time and
bring joy for a long time when given as gifts.

Is there no snow outside in winter? The hand-crocheted snowflakes, e.g. in the window, create a wintry feel and of course
Christmas spirit.  The snowflakes
are ideal as mats for tea lights, cups, or as Christmas tree ornaments
.

I'd like to suggest a wonderful decoration that can be made quickly and easily in three steps. First you have to
crochet a little, then fold and decorate everything with beads. The decorations (size
approx. 8 cm x 10 cm) are perfect as Christmas tree ornaments for Christmas.

If Valentine’s Day means something to you and you like to decorate for the occasion, then you might really like these decorative garlands .


 Made
of photo cardstock and strung on Perlon thread, they’re very easy to make and can be used in many ways: together, for example, as window decorations or wall hangings, or individually as a table runner. The length and number of the garlands are variable; in my example, they’re about 80 cm long.
