Get creative with colorful craft patterns

Dear users, dear authors,
Would you like to let your creativity and imagination run wild this weekend with a colorful pattern? Great for using up scraps, fabric scraps, leftover yarn, paper scraps, and cardboard scraps. Start crafting now and enjoy.

@Authors,
3 patterns per author are enough. Don’t forget links, good images, useful info, etc. All patterns advertised here must have at least 25 sales and a conversion rate of at least 3% for both conversion rate values on the product page. The patterns presented here must not have been advertised in the forum in the past 3 weeks.

You can crochet absolutely enchanting hand puppets from leftover yarn. You can follow the pattern to the letter, but you’ll still have plenty of leeway to bring your own ideas to life. This is how you create completely individual, one-of-a-kind Kasperl puppets.

Today I’d like to introduce you to my 3 magical creatures from my hand puppet collection. All three have magical powers that they can use sometimes for good and sometimes for evil.


First, there’s the Rainbow Fairy. She’s one of the “good guys” and helps Kasperl out of a jam again and again. She wears a rainbow-colored gown with a matching hat and veil.


The wizard Merlin can be a good or evil character—depending on the play. He has a midnight-blue, glittering robe and a pointed hat. You can tell by his long beard and white hair that he’s very old.


The witch Wackelzahn is definitely one of the “bad guys.” It’s a good thing she’s also a little dim-witted. That way, Kasperl and his friends can outwit her time and time again.

This colorful clothing set for dolls (45–55 cm) would fit perfectly in an Easter basket. Every doll mom loves to dress her doll children in new outfits. If you have some knitting experience, you’ll find this very easy to make.

The “Spring Greeting” hanging decoration with colorful tulips and small watering cans made from leftover yarn decorates doors and walls and welcomes spring into your home.

The individual tulips and the pretty little watering cans can of course also be used separately, for example as gift decorations.

Difficulty level: easy, also suitable for beginners with a little practice

Cotton leftovers in many bright colors work best for the crocheted balloon cover.

You’ll crochet individual granny squares, which are then sewn together to form a ball. If the ball gets dirty, the cover dries quickly after washing.
