Knitting teddy bear and doll clothes is always a joy, especially when they’re beautifully colorful. We can already picture the sparkling eyes of the doll or teddy bear’s mom—not just at Christmas.

These two patterns are quick and easy to knit using leftover yarn.


So that your teddy bear and doll (45–50 cm tall) won’t be cold anymore, you can knit them this cute onesie. It just arrived in my shop.

Colorful Craft Bucket
It's not only colorful and fun to crochet—no, it's also practical. Basically, we crochet a cover that is placed around a plastic bucket. Around the outside there are lots of pockets for crochet hooks and the like. The current project goes into the bucket. That way you always have everything together and it looks tidy. You can move from spot A to B.



Water Lily Pillow
This is especially nice for a child's room or the garden. It stands out with its raised water lily blossom in the center, filled with synthetic stuffing. It consists of 2 parts that are buttoned together with self-crocheted buttons (= included in the pattern).



Knitting Nancy Rug
First we make lots of Knitting Nancy cords from our colorful leftover yarns. These are then threaded into a crocheted grid. Add a border around it, and your one-of-a-kind children's room rug is finished.

With this dreary weather, there’s nothing better than sitting comfortably in a warm
home and enjoying your hobby.

How about a few crochet ideas?
