Ta-da! The mail has arrived! Willi the Elf is on his way with the snail mail to deliver an urgent letter. How lucky that he has Billi the racing snail, who’s giving him a ride on her back!
This charming project is made from colorful leftover yarn. The 13-page pattern explains every step in detail, complete with plenty of illustrative pictures.
You can download the crochet pattern for the Snail Mail here!



You can also crochet the contents of this colorful fruit basket using lots of small leftover yarn. The fruit basket contains apples, pears, peaches, plums, cherries, kiwis, oranges, lemons, grapes, a banana, a slice of melon, and a pineapple.

The vibrant colors of fall are reflected in these egg cozies. They’re crocheted using cotton yarn with a yardage of 125 m / 50 g (e.g., Catania). For the fall leaves, I used thinner yarn (sock yarn with a subtle color gradient or Catania Fine).
The crochet pattern for the “Fall Leaves” egg cozies is available here!



Have you thought about Christmas yet? It can be colorful here, too! You can crochet these cute star gnomes in all sorts of colors and hang them in a row as a garland. Maybe you could even attach them to a string of lights. That looks cheerful!

The shawl name "Calor" is Latin and means "warmth," because what could be nicer than snuggling into a beautiful, warm shawl on cold winter days
?! With this pattern, you can do it quickly and easily. The shawl is very well suited for especially colorful and variegated yarn, making it a cheerful splash of color in the cold season.

The semicircular shawl Sommerzeit is also great for colorful gradient yarn cakes.

Knitting pattern for the “Paris” placemat - knit your way to Paris with this placemat, no PCR test required!





Knitting pattern for the “Love Birds” cloth - this motif is suitable for a soft washcloth, or also for a dishcloth or potholder, depending on which yarn you use.





Knitting pattern for the “Winter Sun” headband - this cozy headband is ideal for the transitional season, and you can knit it, for example, in a soft or rich yellow combined with black.






Knitting pattern for the “Cheeky Sheep” reversible beanie - thanks to the double-face knitting technique, the hat is wonderfully cozy and warm and can be worn on either side.





Knitting pattern for the “Elo Elephant” comfort cloth / washcloth - sweet Elo Elephant is happy to serve as a comfort cloth from birth, and later he makes a super-soft washcloth.

Splashes of color that make life more beautiful ... dear Josefa, you put that so well! Yes, colorful yarn always has the same effect on me, too. It makes my life more beautiful, more colorful and more cheerful. I enjoy playing with all those bright colors, combining them and creating something new, wonderful and unique from them. Here are my colorful suggestions for you. For more pictures, information and the pattern, just click on the headings.

Warm regards from Ina

Heart Pillow "African Flowers"


First we crochet lots of individual pieces. Then we crochet them together. Then the pillow is stuffed with synthetic fiberfill, making it completely washable. Keeps its shape.



Round Rug "Colorful"


Ideal for all your leftover yarn. Every rug becomes a one-of-a-kind piece in your favorite colors. You can crochet it in 2 sizes.



6 Crochet Patterns: Fresh Summer Fashion for Small Dolls

It makes the heart smile - both the heart of the person crocheting the clothes and later the doll mom's heart, too. The designs can be combined beautifully and played with for a long time.



Colorful Craft Bucket


With all the compartments around the outside, it is very practical. You can neatly store all your crochet hooks, scissors, etc. in it. Your current crochet project goes into the bucket.



Baby or Child's Blanket

This beautiful and individual blanket is crocheted from many hexagons and half hexagons. The pretty border completes it.



Baby Kick Sack or Swaddle Sack

You can knit it in 2 sizes. The double waistband fits snugly and warmly around baby's little tummy. Bare little feet won't get cold in the kick sack and can kick to their heart's content. Made from soft merino wool, of course.



Ball Gown for Small Dolls

These pretty dresses are knitted with a set of double-pointed needles. There are no limits to your color ideas.



Pillow Cover "African Flowers"

This gorgeous pillow is made up of many hexagons. It is a pillow cover that closes with buttons. Your favorite colors decide how the pillow will look in the end.



Colorful Rectangular Rug in Any Size


This beautiful colorful rug, which you can crochet from all your leftover yarn, will be exactly as large as you want it. You can continue the pattern endlessly.



Mosaic Blanket Made from Colorful Squares

This is also a particularly beautiful blanket in exactly your favorite colors. It is made up of many squares. Each square is crocheted exactly the same way. In the end, it's your color composition that counts.



Felted Boots with Roll Cuffs


Yes, you can make these in all the colors of the rainbow, too, provided those exact colors are available to buy as felting wool. Children especially love color and will surely be delighted with new red or yellow slippers.



St. Nicholas Boots


Why, at Christmas, does it always have to be the children's reasonably polished boots where St. Nicholas hides his surprises? Wouldn't crocheted ones in their favorite colors be much nicer?

I also have matching tealight holders for autumn in my store. This one is especially colorful, making it a small splash of color to brighten up gray rainy days!



The tealight holder is made of photo cardstock and is approx. 12.5 cm tall. Apart from a little experience using a craft knife, you don't need any special prior knowledge – the holder is very easy to make and quick to finish.
