This blanket can easily be adapted to any size. The number of stitches in the pattern is for a baby blanket, but by adding pattern repeats, you can make it as large as you like—perfect for you and those upcoming winter evenings on the sofa.

A cable-like look without a cable needle—you’ll only be knitting knit and purl stitches. 

 
The Autumn Leaf Shawl captivates with its warm autumn colors and unusual shape. It’s ideal for anyone who wants to keep their back especially warm, as it is slightly longer at the back. It’s also very easy to crochet. Only double crochet stitches are used. You start just like with a star blanket and then work the points at the end.


Maybe you’d enjoy crocheting a temperature blanket ? This is an exciting project that stretches over a year, but doesn’t take much time on individual days, since you only crochet one row each day. First, you assign colors to different temperature ranges. You can choose the colors yourself according to your personal taste. The color sequence, however, is then determined by chance, or rather by the temperature on the particular day. This way, you can watch with anticipation as a random pattern slowly emerges.
Everything you need to know for this project can be found in the crochet pattern.

This poncho cape made from fluffy, soft sock yarn keeps you wonderfully warm and is very easy to knit. It also leaves your arms free. On the one hand, this kind of garment is very comfortable, and on the other, you don’t sweat in it as easily.

To the knitting pattern






Many garments can be knitted from sock yarn—by no means just socks. The advantage is that they wash well and, thanks to the high virgin wool content, keep you nice and warm without being too thick. It has proven especially useful for children’s clothing.

This sweater fits 2- to 3-year-olds and is easy to knit. It has virtually no seams and, thanks to the collar, also keeps the neck nicely protected.

Cozy and warm in the cold season, the asymmetrical triangular shawl Calor keeps you snug. Its name is Latin and means warmth—making it the ideal shawl for bundling up. Its subtle mix of patterns is also easy to customize and makes your shawl truly unique.

Our dogs like it warm and cozy during the cold season too.
The ANKA 3-in-1 sewing pattern in a bone shape can be made from many different fabrics and as a single- or double-layer blanket, padded mat, or dog bed cushion.

Vest End Girl is a top-down pattern that can be worn as either a slipover or a top, depending on the yarn. The pattern includes instructions for 8 sizes. The subtle cable pattern down the center front adds a touch of flair to the garment. The pattern is described in detail and includes a chart.

Anyone who can knit or crochet can make cozy wraps to keep warm through fall and winter. Here I’m showing you two examples that I made for myself.

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

Cardigan with shawl collar

This one always works. You slip it on and immediately feel safe, snug, and warmly wrapped up. The shawl collar gives the cardigan a figure-flattering shape. It reaches over the bottom. It has 2 large pockets and a belt. We knit it as a top-down raglan in one piece. That means it has no seams. Now all you have to do is choose a color :-)





Knitted blanket with fringe

This blanket is fun even while you’re knitting it—because we knit only knit stitches and because we don’t have to weave in any ends. It’s ideal for leftover yarn in colors that go well together. Every blanket will be one of a kind.
