The Simply Loop is, as the name suggests, absolutely simple.
It is knit with a repeating pattern of knit and purl stitches, yarn over, and knitting 2 stitches together.

All you need is 2 x 50 g with a yardage of 160 m per 50 g, or, if worked in a single color, just 100 g with 320 m.

A really easy beginner project is the "Ghost" bookmark:

It works up very quickly, so you’ll have a sense of achievement right away. The body is crocheted only with white yarn, so there are no color changes.  You’ll practice increases and decreases. At the end, small circles are crocheted as eyes and sewn on.

The fruit coasters are also very easy:

A straw fits perfectly through the hole in the middle, so you can also use the coasters as glass covers. This is especially practical if you want to protect your drink outdoors from insects or falling leaves.
Here you’ll practice crocheting in rounds. The coasters look especially nice if you use matching colors. If you crochet the coasters a little larger and add a hanger, you can also crochet potholders using this pattern.

Even if you haven’t done much crafting yet—this gift bag with beautiful tulips is sure to turn out great!



The bag is made of cardstock and, measuring approximately 21 x 26 x 8 cm, can hold several small gifts at once. The pattern describes all the steps in detail.

Funpun - here made from colorful leftover yarn - has no seams and is easy to crochet.

The flower garland can be made in any length; the flowers are 5 cm and 7.5 cm in size and are made of cardstock. The garland is easy to make and is also very well suited for craft beginners.

If you want to crochet a cute cuddly toy for your children,
Amadeus the Ant
is the perfect pattern, even if you don’t have much experience with amigurumi yet.

A magic ring, single crochet stitches, slip stitches, and a simple color change are all you need to know.

With a 3 mm crochet hook and Catania from Schachenmayr, Amadeus will be about 29 cm tall, making him just the right size for cuddling or being taken for a walk in a doll stroller. Amadeus is a cuddly friend for every situation.

I hope you have lots of fun crocheting.
