Dear users, dear authors,
if you’d like to make new Advent + Christmas items, decorations, functional items + useful items by hand, independently of Advent + Christmas, then this is the right thread for you. Have fun with it.

A gift—knitted with love and from the heart—that’s what this cloth is. You can knit it as a washcloth, pot holder, or even a dishcloth. Anything is possible. Even as a beginner with basic skills, you can easily manage this.

Everything is explained clearly and simply in the pattern. A leftover partial ball of yarn is more than enough here, and you can get started right away.

This cloth featuring a dove of peace can also serve various purposes, even as a coaster. It’s just as easy to knit, since it consists only of knit and purl stitches. Give the gift of a symbol of peace, because we all need it.

A small round pillow crocheted with African Flowers makes a great gift or something to keep for yourself. The pillow is crocheted with cotton yarn (or yarn of your choice). For example, 8/4 from Hobbii. The pillow measures about 22 cm. The flowers are crocheted individually and then joined together.
You can use the pillow as a scented pillow or a heat pillow.

Giving a symbol of peace for Christmas and the turn of the year—I completely agree with Mowi19. 
How about a little peace dove? It can be crocheted super quickly, and with one skein of cotton yarn you can make lots and lots of little doves. In my crochet pattern, I’ll show you how it’s done! It’s a small sign of peace, a wish that surely everyone carries inside. And perfect as a bag charm and keychain

A beautiful pillow is always an eye-catcher and decorates all our favorite spots. This one has a thick water lily in the center. It is slightly raised and has a 3D effect. The pillow is made of 2 pieces that we close with handmade buttons. This means the pillow cover can also be washed if needed.
