It's time to think about summer. Jute beach sandals.

Sandals


This springlike motif is a wonderful project for the coming weekend! The cloth is knitted in double-face — either with soft baby yarn as a cuddly cloth for little ones or as a facial cleansing cloth for teens / adults, or with pure cotton as a potholder.

Of course, you could also start knitting something for Mother’s Day already — for example, these two “From the Heart” gift bags. Both bags are knitted in double-face.

Maybe your e-reader or small tablet could use a new case? Then get started this weekend with this case featuring a flower and bird motif. It is knitted in double-face, so you can even turn it inside out and use it from the other side too.

Sonja wishes you a wonderful weekend

How about dressing up different dolls and teddy bears this weekend? You’re sure to have plenty of leftover yarn in your stash that can be put to good use. The pattern includes sizes 25–30 cm and 45–50 cm—plus tips for sizes in between.

A pretty sleeping bag like this for a doll stroller is sure to bring joy—both while crocheting it and when giving it as a gift. Dolls or teddy bears up to 50 cm in size can slumber blissfully inside it or be taken for a stroll.

And of course, the doll baby also needs a diaper that even a toddler can easily put on and take off. It’s best to crochet several of them using leftover yarn.

Triangular Shawl Kira

What could be nicer than exploring a new technique? It lets you forget your everyday worries for a few moments. Give it a try! Hairpin lace crochet isn’t hard at all. You’ll find the pattern in my Blickfang-Design store.

Crochet Top Beryl

The Beryl crochet top is crocheted from Tencel. The yarn is especially well suited for summer. It feels comfortable on the skin. Stop by my Blickfang-Design store. You can get the pattern there.

It’s still supposed to stay chilly..... Why not knit a hat

The pattern is easy to make for sizes 33 - 55 cm head circumference. Knit and purl stitches are used. 



Matching the hat, there is a knitted collar - a lovely alternative to a scarf or loop scarf

Knitted with circular needles, this model too can be easily knitted in different sizes with a little practice. 

 
You can crochet this cute snail mail from colorful leftover yarn in all the colors of the rainbow. Wouldn't that be an original thank-you gift for the nice mail carrier? This snail mail is also a great idea as an extra touch for a sweet letter!

You can also make this little berry basket with contents from colorful leftover yarn: you can crochet 6 different kinds of berries: strawberries, blueberries, cherries, currants, blackberries, and raspberries. It's perfect for a children's play shop, especially during berry season!

The Strawberry Flower Child also goes wonderfully with it. It is 12 cm tall and can be decorated in various positions because its arms and legs are reinforced with wire. As you can see, the crocheted strawberries are almost indistinguishable from the real ones!

The butterflies on this garland are made up of many individual pieces, making it a wonderful weekend project.
