@Authors,
a maximum of 3 patterns per author is enough for each occasion. All patterns promoted here must not have been promoted in the forum in the past 3 weeks and must each have at least 10 sales + a CR of at least 2%.

Is Dad a soccer fan? Then why not crochet him the funny soccer mascot Tooorsten! Tooorsten’s body consists of black and white pentagons and hexagons, which are crocheted individually and then sewn or crocheted together at the end. The pattern describes how to do this in detail. Of course, you can also crochet Tooorsten in the colors of Dad’s favorite soccer team instead of the German national colors.


And Mom might be delighted with the pretty shopping bag featuring a heart and the word “Mom.” It’s crocheted from pink cotton yarn and is so roomy that it works great as a beach bag, too.

Yeah, really cool gifts! Such a great idea. You’ll need to wrap them nicely in cardboard boxes, and then the parents will be thrilled :) Just great. Best regards

Moms love gifts that come from the heart.
A pretty doily with lots of hearts is always a hit.
It can also be used as a dishcloth.
It is knitted from cotton using only knit and purl stitches.
This makes it very suitable for beginners too.

For dads, there is a coaster for a beer glass / Bembel.
It can also be used as a dishcloth or for cleaning the car.
Quick to knit, washable, reusable and therefore eco-friendly.

Most people stop giving their parents homemade gifts once they become adults. But why not give them something you’ve created with your own hands every now and then?

This table lamp makes a wonderful gift for your parents: on dark evenings, when the little lamp is turned on, it’s as if you’re sending them a warm greeting.



The lamp is about 10.7 cm tall and made of photo cardstock and tracing paper. With a little crafting experience, it’s easy to make.

This very easy-to-knit cloth, which can be used as a washcloth or dishcloth, makes a great gift for Mother’s Day or Father’s Day. Maybe you could turn it into a “pampering set” by adding a nice soap or body care product. The pattern is described in such detail that you can easily make it if you know how to knit and purl stitches.

These enchanting little gift bags are ideal for beautifully and lovingly wrapping small items or a gift certificate. The little bags are knitted in double knitting. This knitting technique is an exciting challenge for advanced knitters and is explained in great detail in the pattern.
