@Authors,

The patterns should be quick to make and inexpensive. 

Egg cozies are a small project that even beginners can complete quickly and easily. Since you can usually use leftover yarn for them, you don’t have to spend a lot of money on yarn—instead, you can put your scraps to good use. Anyone who enjoys an egg for breakfast will surely be delighted to receive these fun egg cozies as a little gift.


For these cute ladybug egg cozies , you’ll need just a little red, black, and skin-colored cotton (less than 20 g total) per piece, a suitable crochet hook, and some craft batting.



The Spring Blossom Egg Cozies bring a touch of spring to your breakfast table all year round. Snowdrops, daffodils, bellflowers, and tulips add wonderful pops of color. You’ll need 20–30 g of the main color, plus a small scrap of green.

You can find even more crochet patterns for egg cozies here in my collection!


My Diamond wrist warmers are quick to knit and are just the right accessory for cool evenings right now. 
With a maximum of 50 g of sock-weight yarn, you only need a small amount of yarn.

 This takes you directly to the pattern 

Fall is already knocking loudly at the door. To stay warmly bundled up outdoors, now is definitely the time to quickly knit something warm. You don’t need much yarn for my selected models either. Take a look ...

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

Universal Cowl
You can knit it for the whole family in a yarn of your choice. The children’s cowl requires 100 g of yarn, and the adult size 200 g. Maybe you have a suitable soft yarn in your leftovers box that would be perfect for this. We knit in the round throughout. The pattern is super easy; anyone can manage it.





Wrist Warmers
This model is ideal for anyone who wants to keep their fingertips free. Even so, the wrist warmers keep the whole hand warm. On top, we knit a lovely cable. The inside is knitted in stockinette stitch. We knit a thumb gusset so the wrist warmers fit perfectly.

We need 50 to 60 g of yarn per pair (depending on hand size). We knit with a set of double-pointed needles.
