As an advanced knitter, maybe you're in the mood for a double-face project? You can create beautiful motifs with it. Of course, you can basically also knit the double-face patterns in Fair Isle style if you prefer that.



Knitting pattern for the reversible beanie "Cheeky Sheep" - this cute hat is a real eye-catcher, and also cuddly soft. Double-face knitting makes it nice and dense and keeps you warm. The size is very easy to adjust. 




Knitting pattern for the gym bag "Life is magic" - this gym bag with lots of sparkle is a dream for all unicorn fans! The base is crocheted in single crochet stitches, the rest is knitted in double-face. If you start now, it will even be finished in time as a Christmas gift :-)




Knitting pattern for the "Flamingo Love" potholders - these potholders with the flamingos in love, knitted in double-face, are also perfect as a Christmas gift. Or make them for your own kitchen, in matching colors. Either way, it's fun to watch the pattern grow while you're knitting!

Knitting pattern for a roll-neck collar —as an alternative to an infinity scarf or scarf

It’s knitted using circular needles or a set of double-pointed needles, and you’ll also find a knitting chart in the pattern. 



Knitting pattern for a scarf —with a beautiful lace pattern

For this project, you should be familiar with knit stitches, purl stitches, yarn overs, and knitting stitches together. 

To crochet these two potholders, you should already have a little crochet experience, because they are made using the tapestry technique, where the yarn of one color is always carried along. There is a counting chart for the pattern that you can follow, but it is also written out row by row.
You can find the crochet pattern for these two potholders here!

These knitted pants made from sock yarn for toddlers ages 1 and up won’t slip down thanks to the straps. They feature a narrow cable pattern on the sides, ensuring a perfect fit. Each pair is one-of-a-kind due to the yarn.

If you have a toddler in the family with a Puky, tricycle, or balance bike, then this bag is indispensable. Children love being able to collect treasures in it or take their favorite animals along.

The pattern makes the bag very sturdy, and it also has a double bottom.

Ball gown with tulle underskirt

With this beautiful doll dress, the challenge is that you need to be able to read a crochet chart for the skirt. There is an A4-sized crochet chart. We sew tulle under the crocheted skirt so the dress gets a lovely shape.





Knitted scarf with beaded lace edging

This is a lovely project for anyone who has always wanted to learn how to knit small rocaille beads into a piece. It looks wonderful and gives the scarf that special something. You can wear it open as a stole or wrapped as a scarf.





Knitting pattern “Wrist warmers with a decorative cable”

This is a lovely and practical knitting project for anyone who wants to practice cable knitting and knitting with a set of double-pointed needles . Everything is described and shown in detail. These would be just the right wrist warmers for the current season. Your fingers stay free, yet your hands are kept warm. That means “ladies” can still use their phones ;-)

This asymmetrical shawl requires quite a bit of attention and is more of a fun project for advanced crocheters. 
It can be made in any size and with any yarn and the matching hook size. However, I recommend at least 1200 m so it has a decent size.

Material usage depends on the shawl size, yarn weight, hook size, and crochet style:

• Here in the pattern example: 1400 m / 4-ply yarn
• Crochet hook to match the yarn (here size 3.5)
• 1 stitch marker

This knight’s castle Advent calendar is fairly straightforward, but a bit time-consuming, so it’s best suited for experienced crafters.



The calendar is made of photo-quality cardstock and measures approximately 18.5 x 34 x 18.5 cm. The tower in the center can be removed and serves as a container for gifts that don’t fit into the small numbered compartments.

Trenzada Braided Scarf
A scarf with a twist



-- to the pattern --

This scarf is a real eye-catcher and offers a slightly different crochet challenge.
