Weekend Projects + Summer Bestsellers

Dear users, dear authors,
how about a new weekend project or a summer bestseller to help you really relax this weekend?
Get started now.

@Authors,
2-3 patterns per author are enough. Don’t forget links, images, info, etc.

For me, there’s nothing more relaxing than knitting a great project in beautiful colors. These adorable flamingos are a real joy to work on. The pot holders are knitted using the double-face technique, so they look just as beautiful on both sides.

Another lovely weekend project is this little “Breakfast for You” bread basket for one person—great as a gift for someone living alone or for their first apartment... The bottom of the basket is crocheted, and the rest is knitted in double knitting.

For my craft suggestions, all you need is a little colorful yarn from your scrap stash and a suitable crochet hook—and of course a lovely pattern that lets you crochet in a relaxed way. Here are my ideas for you. For more photos, information, and the pattern, simply click on the headings.

Best wishes and have a lovely weekend, Ina

When it gets a little cooler in the evening, a grain pillow is a lovely way to warm your back. The cozy warmth also feels good for stomachaches and tension.

And so that the grain pillows are packaged nicely and originally too, here are a few pretty crocheted pillow covers that don’t reveal their purpose at first glance:

This cute cardigan for toddlers (size 86/92) is a great project for gradient yarn cakes. It’s easy to knit using the pattern if you have some knitting experience. Perfect for cool summer or fall days.

Leftover yarn or sock yarn can be used for this collar scarf. It keeps the neck nice and warm and looks very pretty, too. Well-suited for beginners with basic skills.

This cute cardigan with a matching hat fits dolls measuring 45–50 cm, as well as small newborns or premature babies. Leftover yarn can also be used here. Easy to knit as a top-down raglan.

Spiral socks are knitted without a heel—and fit several sizes because their shape adapts to the foot.

This pattern can be made in sizes 14-18 up to shoe size 46-47.

The beautiful pattern is shown in the instructions both in writing and with a knitting chart. 



This turtleneck collar is also quick to knit—as a substitute for a loop scarf or scarf, it also provides extra warmth for the shoulder area

You should know how to knit and purl stitches. It is knitted with circular needles and is also well suited for beginners with a bit of practice.

The “Summer Evening Breeze” pentagonal shawl is perfect for cool summer evenings. The shawl can be worked to any size, so everyone can easily make it just the way they want. Its shape makes it nestle perfectly around your shoulders.

If you prefer triangular shawls and would like to get a little creative yourself, why not try my summer bestseller, “Apfelblütentraum”? After completing the first round of crocheting, you can combine the patterns to your own taste, creating a completely individual and unique shawl.
