@Authors,

Diggi Dino and Elo Elefant are looking for a new friend! They are both wonderfully cuddly and soft, and always ready for snuggling or even wiping a little dirty face. They make a great gift because they bring joy and can be used right from birth. When the child is a little older, Diggi Dino and Elo Elefant are happy to keep little eyes dry during hair washing.

Both cuddle cloths / washcloths are knitted in double-face and get a pretty crochet border. 

With one click on the link under the picture, you'll go directly to the pattern.

Making something by hand for babies is always something very special. You need the right yarn, the right colors, it should be practical and beautiful at the same time - and of course it has to be liked by the parents and the baby. Here are some suggestions for you. You’ll find more sample pictures, information, and the pattern itself by clicking on the headings.

I hope you enjoy looking through them and making them.
Best wishes - Yours, Ina

Timeless Baby Blanket Made from Merino Wool

--> The perfect gift for a birth. The soft merino wool provides reliable warmth without making you sweat underneath. The pattern is nice and simple, so the pattern is also well suited for knitting beginners.



Fluffy Baby Blanket

--> If you like things a bit fluffier, I recommend this blanket. According to the feedback I’ve received, it also looks especially lovely in photo shoots - as you can see with my baby. Even after washing, the blanket stays this fluffy.



Baby or Children’s Blanket "African Flowers"

--> This blanket is also a unique and lovely gift for a new little arrival who’s been announced. It is crocheted from many different hexagons. Every blanket is guaranteed to be one of a kind.




Mosaic Blanket Made from Squares

--> This is also a beautiful blanket for the little one. My grandson Oskar loves it more than anything - he always wants to grab the little bobbles. But they’re crocheted on securely. First we crochet lots of squares, then we crochet them together. Then a border is added around it, and the guaranteed one-of-a-kind blanket is finished.




Baby Kicking Bag or Swaddle Sack

--> This is practically a small blanket. The baby is snug and warm and can kick to their heart’s content with bare little feet. The color gradient comes straight from the ball of yarn. The cuff is a little wider and elastically stretchy because it is meant to keep the tummy and kidneys warm and, of course, fit well. You can make the kicking bag in 2 sizes.



Wrap Cardigan with Hat

--> perfect for the little ones, the cardigan and hat grow with them for a few months, the decorative cable on the front is especially lovely, and it’s also a really wonderful gift for a birth - made from veeeery soft yarn, of course.

I love knitting for babies. That’s how I was able to outfit my two granddaughters so well. Some of the knitting designs have also made their way into my shop. Most are easy to make, and they all come with detailed instructions. The links will take you directly to the respective knitting pattern and more detailed information.

This is a unique pattern for a dinosaur baby/toddler blanket worked in filet style. It’s a lot of fun to work on the blanket. You can either use a color-changing yarn like I did or make it in a solid color.

With the MIKA diaper pouch, you’re perfectly equipped for outings with baby: diapers, a disposable changing pad, wet wipes, and diaper cream all have their place here. The wet wipes can be pulled out one at a time; the pouch has slats at the opening—that’s the ONLY diaper pouch pattern that has this! ;)

Here is the MIKA diaper pouch.
