Dear users, dear authors,
get yourself some beautiful stash-buster projects for on the go now.
Have fun with them.

@Authors,
2-3 patterns per author are enough. Don’t forget links, images, info, etc.

Small projects with simple patterns are great for on the go. 



Maybe a crocheted headband. The headband can easily be adjusted to the desired head circumference. The pattern is only worked over one row and is easy to do. 



Knitted dishcloths are also very good for on the go. The pattern is easy to knit with knit and purl stitches. This way you can pass the time while waiting at the doctor’s office and fill your gift box at the same time. 



Sock knitting is also very popular for on the go. Here I show you spiral socks—socks without a heel. This way the socks fit across several sizes, which is ideal especially for children. 

The doll hammock is a wonderful project to crochet on the go, because the pattern is very simple and all you need are a few colorful leftover yarn scraps. By the end of a train ride, the piece will be far enough along that all you’ll have to do when you get home is weave in the ends.

These egg cozies are also great to crochet on the go, since you only use one color at a time and the increases are regular. At the end, you’ll embroider the yellow dots.

You can always use pot holders. This nostalgic cup-shaped pot holder is crocheted in two layers. This lets you slip your hand in from the top like a glove. Since there are only a few increases at the beginning, you hardly need to count.

Small, light, and uncomplicated—that’s what the ideal craft project for on the go should be. Here are a few suggestions from me for you. I’ve made all of them myself on the regional train—so they’ve truly been tested by me in real life. I was often approached, too, and real expert conversations developed. I think I got quite a few fellow travelers interested in handicrafts.

I hope you enjoy looking at them and making them yourself.

Warm regards from Ina

Mosaic Blanket Made of Squares

For this beautiful blanket, you have to crochet lots of identical squares, which works wonderfully on the train or in a waiting room. At the end, they are crocheted together to make a blanket.





Featherlight Cowl

It’s called “Featherlight” because, of course, it is light as a feather. One cowl weighs only 50 or 75 g. I call it relaxation knitting, because we just knit around in circles and don’t have to follow a pattern.





Poncho for Dolls in Different Variations

A small crochet project that is very uncomplicated. Ideal for in between times or on the go. It doesn’t take up much space either. In the end, you’ll have made a few lovely doll clothes almost on the side.
