It may look complicated, this headband made from merino wool, but it’s very easy to knit. You’ll have fun with it. Maybe it’s a last-minute idea for a Christmas gift?

A baby should be nice and warm and cozy while sleeping. A sleeping bag made from merino wool like this is very popular and practical. It fits from 3 months up to one year. My granddaughter slept blissfully in it.

Have you ever thought about making Kasperl figures for your children yourself? If you can crochet a little, it’s not hard at all, and it’s great fun because you can give your creativity free rein. Often you don’t need to get any elaborate materials, because most of it can be made with leftover yarn you already have.
Here I’ll show you a few examples from my Hand Puppet Collection:

Kasperl Hand Puppet


Crocodile Hand Puppet


Police Officer Hand Puppet

Fargerik is a wonderful shawl that can be knitted well with leftover yarn, since the middle pattern is simply continued throughout. In total, 7 x 20 g and 1 x 80 g are knitted up, all in sock yarn weight

The Noble Hand Stripes wrist warmers are knitted as a rectangle and then sewn together at the side. I crocheted on the thumbs when I added any.
Leftover yarn can also be used up well here; a simple slipped-stitch pattern creates the great effect. Approx. 2 x 40 g of yarn are needed.
