Cuddly kitten Mauzi is crocheted with three kinds of yarn and two kinds of patterns: thin chenille yarn and single crochet for the head, paws, and tail, and cotton and plush yarn with double crochet for the body. This creates an interesting texture that encourages the baby to keep touching and feeling their cuddly toy. 
You can find the crochet pattern for Mauzi here!

Different yarn is also needed for Bibo the warming monkey.  To make Bibo nice and soft and cuddly, the head and limbs are crocheted with single crochet and plush yarn.  The body, which is a cover for a grain pillow, needs to withstand heat.  That’s why it is crocheted with cotton yarn 
 To allow the heat to be released well, choose an airy granny pattern.

Here I used two different materials and crafts. The shoe was crocheted with felting wool, and the cuff at the top was then knitted with e.g. sock yarn. 

The shoes fit a doll with a sole length of 5–6 cm 

This classic mix of materials combines black photo cardstock with colorful tracing paper. The result is a pretty window decoration.



The colorful Easter basket measures about 37 x 35 cm—so small windows aren’t a problem here. Anyone who can use a craft knife will have no trouble recreating this picture.
