Weekend Projects + Great Bestsellers + Leftover Patterns / Leftover Yarn Projects

Dear users, dear authors,
you’re sure to find a new weekend project here in this thread. How about a lovely bestseller or a quick + colorful leftover project / leftover yarn project / yarn leftovers project? Wishing you all a pleasant weekend.

@Authors,
2–3 patterns per author are enough. Don’t forget links directly to the pattern, good pictures, information about materials, technique, etc. All featured patterns must have at least 10 sales / a CR of at least 3% and must not have been featured in the forum in the past 4 weeks.

Here, I’d like to share a few cute weekend projects with you that are quick and easy to crochet.
And best of all: you don’t need much yarn, because they’re perfect for using up leftover yarn.

Polly and Paule Bag Charms

A little bear or bunny like this is quick to crochet and always brings joy and a smile. The pattern is described in detail and richly illustrated, so even beginners can achieve great results.
The bag charms measure about 14 cm.



Cheeky Fruit Egg Cozies

Are you looking for a new and fun breakfast surprise? Then these cheeky fruits are just the thing for you. :)
They’re super quick to crochet and suitable even for beginners with basic skills.



Decorative Hearts / Keychains

How about a pretty little heart as an original gift idea or a small token for a loved one?
With this pattern, it’s easy to quickly crochet a little heart like this.

Shanti Collar is a knitted collar, worked only with knit and purl stitches, that can be worn in different ways.
Since it only requires 100 g of yarn with a yardage of 200 m per 100 g, it knits up quickly.

The time to start preparing Christmas gifts is slowly approaching. Wrist warmers are quick to knit and make a very personal gift.
My Diamant wrist warmers also look elegant thanks to the light lace pattern.

You can knit these cute washcloths with only about 30 g of thin cotton yarn each (e.g., 155 m / 50 g). A cotton-bamboo blend yarn is also very well suited for a washcloth. Of course, the motifs can also be used as dishcloths. For all three motifs, only knit and purl stitches are needed, so even beginners can successfully knit the cloths.

This beautiful mini autumn wreath can be crocheted in a weekend from just a few colorful leftovers. It has a diameter of 12 cm. I used gradient sock yarn to crochet around the Styrofoam wreath. But you can also use individual leftovers in various autumn colors for it.
