You just have to love Lily!! The sheep to cuddle with.....
Lily is crocheted with single crochet stitches. The size may vary depending on the yarn weight. With filet crochet thread or mohair, poly yarn, or simply whatever you still have lying around at home.  Anything is possible. The matching hook and some stuffing. Lily is relatively quick to crochet, and if you start right away, Lily will already be your new housemate on Sunday...   
Have fun crocheting :-)

A great project that works up quickly and creates a large result is the Hestia blanket.

The pattern combines the classic granny pattern with filet crochet, making it ideal for beginners. All you need to do is master the basic techniques mentioned.

Thanks to the filet pattern, the blanket is very lightweight. Yet, when folded double, it’s still cozy and warm. Measuring 1.50 x 1.50 m, your little one will enjoy it well into toddlerhood.



What skills do you need?

• Magic Ring (optional)
• Chain stitches
• Slip stitches
• Double crochet
• Half double crochet
• Single crochet
• Basics of filet crochet

These are the materials you need at home:

• 2 x 1200 m 4-ply folded yarn (50% polyacrylic / 50% cotton)
• 4 mm crochet hook
• Scissors
• Yarn needle

Simple Baby Crochet Shoes



(For purchase/download, please click the image)

This is an illustrated crochet pattern for easy-to-crochet baby shoes. Basic crochet skills are enough.

We need about 50 g cotton (blend) yarn with a yardage of approx. 90 m per 50 g, for (knitting) needle size 4.0–5.0; used here: crochet hook 4.5; however, thinner yarn can also be used—the specified measurements are what matter (check the gauge), leftover yarn for the bows or 2 pretty buttons, yarn needle, measuring tape, scissors.

In addition to the detailed pattern, I have also created a short crochet pattern (sketch) as well as a short pattern for the knitted version.

By the way: cash gifts can also be “wrapped” this way..

Have fun “crocheting/knitting around baby feet” :-)

Wrist warmers and hats are known to fly off the needles pretty quickly, too...

Here are a few ideas we’ve brought along for you.
