Make Decorative, Functional, and Useful Items Now

Dear users, dear authors,
Do you absolutely need new decor / functional items / useful things? Then grab some delightful downloads right here in this thread and get started right away. Have fun, everyone.

@Authors,
2–3 patterns per author are enough. All patterns featured here in this thread must have a minimum CR of 2%, at least 10 sales, and must not have been featured in the forum within the past 4 weeks. 

Just being pretty often isn’t enough for me when it comes to handmade items. They also need to have a practical use. Then they are needed and used, and you can enjoy them every day. Here are two suggestions from me. You can find more in my Shop.

I hope you enjoy looking at them and making them yourself.
Warm regards from Ina

Hanging storage basket

My granddaughters, for example, are happy to have a container for their little-girl jewelry like clips, ponytail holders, and sparkly things.
So they have a place for their treasures and can also carry them around from room
to room, I crocheted them a storage basket. It
has room for their treasures, and thanks to
the hanger you can conveniently hang it anywhere in the children’s room.




Round basket with mesh pattern

Then I also have something for the grown-ups: a round basket with a beautiful pattern. You can store your current crochet project in it nicely, and it looks tidy. The base is made double and reinforced. You can crochet the basket in any size you like. With thin yarn it will automatically be much smaller anyway and could also be a pretty container for a small decoration.

If you like tea lights and golden stars are an absolute must for your Christmas decorations, then this star could be your next project.



The tea light holder shown is made of photo cardstock and measures approximately 18 x 2.5 x 18 cm. With a little crafting experience and practice cutting with a craft knife, it’s very easy to recreate.

Sometimes, even at Christmas, a cash gift is the way to go! If you want to package it in a particularly original way, why not crochet this cute reindeer money pouch! Your gift is sure to be a big hit. All you need for Rudi with the red nose is some leftover yarn, a crochet hook, and a purse clasp. It’s best to get started right away!
