The Othello family :-)
Looks like the little ones have taken after Mom and Dad. A fluffy family to love.

The big dog is crocheted with acrylic yarn (approx. 210g - 50g/133m) and the little ones with cotton yarn (approx. 95g - 100g/530m) chain stitches, single crochet, half double crochet. Increases and decreases, and then Othello is actually quick to crochet. Every amigurumi lover is sure to have some stuffing on hand, a long blunt needle, and you can either use safety eyes or embroider them. From 50 cm (standing) to 23 cm... or something in between if you use different yarn. Othello is up for anything :-) From beginner to pro... the pattern was wonderfully recreated by the test crocheters.

Have fun crocheting :-)

Mini-format amigurumi. Use up leftover yarn in a cute way. These keychains are quick to crochet and easy to make even for crocheters who aren’t very experienced. Magic ring, single crochet, increases and decreases.
Bring these sweet dogs home and crochet your own one-of-a-kind piece. You can use almost any leftover yarn and wool scraps. 
Of course, the matching cat is also available in my shop. Just stop by and take a look.

Have fun crocheting :-) 

Stars are always a great accessory.
Just like the Asteria poncho.



The poncho was originally intended for children. In the meantime, however, the pattern has been expanded so that any size and any yarn can be knitted.
Using your individual gauge, you can determine the adjusted stitch count with a simple formula. You will also find a chart for six or more points in the appendix if the increases for 5 points are too narrow for you.

Start the new year with a very special, beautiful knitted triangular shawl!

"Minas Tirith" is a slightly asymmetrical shawl knitted from side to side, made especially beautiful by its twining leaves and cables.
The shawl can be wonderfully recreated with many yarn weights.

The pattern is written in an easy-to-understand way; it includes detailed charts (a written-out version has been omitted!) as well as a schematic drawing and a link to a video tutorial for binding off using the I-cord method.

Slippers/house socks always come in handy. Especially since these shoes are knitted without a heel. You only need to know how to knit with a set of double-pointed needles, and you'll quickly have a great new pair of Sneakers.

May I introduce "Seppl the Sleepyhead". He is a bit more work-intensive to crochet, but he’s really fun. And once finished, he really is something to be proud of.

In addition to the doll, the pattern also includes the sleep onesie, the pom-pom hat, the cuddly cloth, the pacifier, and the teddy bear slippers.

You will receive a detailed 41-page pattern with many photos to follow along. The doll measures approx. 36 cm.

Also suitable for ambitious beginners.

Funny Sheep Potholder Set

easy and simple to crochet, also and especially for beginners

My number one bestseller of 2016 was the Rustico Basket crochet pattern.
It’s quick to crochet using leftover yarn, even for beginners. The size is variable. Feel free to read through the 164 reviews.

Best wishes from "Ina strickt"

My No. 2 and No. 3 bestsellers are my felt shoe patterns . I’m a big fan of felting wool because there’s nothing more comfortable, soft, and warm for your feet in the fall and winter. Once you put them on, you won’t want to take them off. Thanks to my patterns, you can make them in all sizes for yourself, your family, and your guests. Even beginners at knitting and felting can do it.

The felt boots with a rolled cuff are more suited for fall and winter, while the felt moccasins are better for spring and fall. They’re all beautifully colorful, soft, warm, and one of a kind.
Best wishes, and enjoy making them — Ina
