2024 has begun. There is still time to send wishes for a happy New Year! Lucky Pig Felix has dressed up especially nicely as the bearer of good wishes: with a lucky clover on his top hat, a black vest, and a horseshoe and lucky mushroom in his little paws, he wishes everyone here a happy, joyful New Year!




The hedgehog was chosen as Animal of the Year 2024 by the German Wildlife Foundation. Of course, my two finger puppets, the hedgehogs Anny and Bruno. are happy about that too. To celebrate, Bruno presents his beloved with his very loveliest sunflower.



The time until Easter is short this year. A quick and easy crochet project for in between are these Easter bookmarks. All bookworms are sure to be delighted by the bunny, chick, and little Easter lamb in the Easter nest!

Kids feel most comfortable in cozy clothes. Of course, they should also keep them nice and warm. These leggings, which can also be knitted from sock yarn, were a favorite for my granddaughters. They fit ages 1.5 to 3 years and are easy to knit if you have some knitting experience.

This hat keeps the head, neck, and throat equally warm. My granddaughter really didn’t like it when anything was pulled over her head. She was truly happy with this hat featuring a shawl collar—and so was her mother. It’s very easy to knit and just as easy to put on and take off.

No time for an elaborate Carnival costume? With this mask, you can transform yourself quickly and effortlessly—just print it out, cut it out, attach an elastic cord, put it on—and you’re ready to join in the colorful Carnival festivities!


The printable template for this owl mask is available in three sizes, so there’s a mask size to fit everyone from toddlers to adults.

A lovely alternative to a loop scarf or scarf is a knitted collar. It also keeps the shoulder area warm and provides cozy warmth all the way up. 

For the “Curola” model I knitted a cable pattern, so it is best suited for knitters with some experience. 



A lovely welcome gift for a new little one is the “Hello Colorful World” blanket

You start in the middle and crochet in continuous spiral rounds to the desired size and until the yarn runs out. It looks especially pretty with gradient yarn. For my second blanket, I crocheted up lots of leftover cotton yarn, and I think the beautiful crochet pattern really stands out here.
