These beautiful motifs are a wonderful way to unwind. The “Flamingo Love” potholders and the “Happy Dog” dishcloth are each knitted in double-face with cotton. If you have a free weekend ahead with plenty of time for knitting, they might be ready to use by Sunday evening!

No plans for the weekend?

Then you can use the time to prepare some gift boxes for the upcoming holidays. By combining solid-colored photo cardstock, printed craft paper, and ribbons of varying widths and qualities, you can use the same template to create boxes that look completely different and are perfect for any occasion.



The boxes are made of photo cardstock, measure approximately 9 x 9 x 13 cm, and are very easy to make. You can find the patterned paper shown in the image as a PDF file in my store.

Tsubabiro can easily be crocheted in a weekend and goes well with a 70s-style wardrobe as well as with simple jeans and a T-shirt.

The two-page PDF file is beginner-friendly.

If you have a little time for a craft project this weekend, you could try making this enchanting little basket.



The flower basket is made entirely of cardstock and measures approximately 16 x 19 cm; the flowers are made of cardstock, crepe paper, and wire, and are about 15 cm tall. Everything is very easy to make, and thanks to the detailed instructions, it’s well-suited even for beginners.

A great summer project for all crochet enthusiasts:

Starting today, the crochet pattern for the hot air balloon is available for download! The hot air balloon is very versatile. It can be used as a yarn basket and storage for your craft supplies—or as a gift basket or baby basket!
