Things are getting wild at Ernst Wuschel. Henry the Lion has just moved into the shop. He also comes with a great costume trick, because without his mane and in a striped look, he also cuts a fine figure as a tiger.

The illustrated crochet pattern is 11 pages long and is also suitable for beginners.

Required materials: • crochet hook size 4.00 • crochet hook 2.00 for knotting in the mane • yarn needle for sewing together • stitch marker • cotton yarn (100% cotton, e.g. DROPS “Paris”), approx. 300g in main color (yellow), 75g in dark brown, 35g in orange, 25g in light yellow • approx. 150g stuffing
For the eyes: • safety eyes 12mm

You can find the pattern here.

Cord is about 37 cm tall, which is a great cuddling size. He can be knitted by ambitious beginners who would like to try new techniques and aren’t afraid of sewing pieces together. But don’t worry, everything is explained in detail!

    Here’s where to find Cord: CLICK!

    Why not an unicorn for Easter?
    Zauberstern is just under 30 cm, the perfect cuddly size, and still fits in an Easter basket ♥
    This beginner-friendly crochet pattern shows you step by step how to conjure up your very own unicorn for your favorite person ...
    Catania cotton and glitter yarn from ByClaire were used here, with crochet hook sizes 2 to 3.
    Of course, you can also crochet Zauberstern in your favorite colors and without glitter yarn :-)

    The little lamb is sooo tired, it just wants to cuddle with you for a little while, and then you’re sure to fall asleep too...
    If you’re willing to try working with fluffy yarn, you can crochet this cuddly little sheep. Of course, you can also use any other yarn, but you’ll only get the plush effect with fluffy yarn.
    Depending on the thickness of the yarn, the little lamb will be between 12 and 25 cm tall. It is crocheted using single crochet stitches. You can also sew a small music box with a custom melody into a larger sheep.
    You can find the pattern  here

    Zacharias the Zebra is always in a great mood and always ready for fun. Zebras were originally native to North Africa; today they are extinct there and live in South Africa. Zacharias would rather live in a nice, cozy home where he gets cuddled now and then.

    The pattern includes many step-by-step photos that make it easier to follow. However, you should already have basic crochet skills (single crochet, increases and decreases, etc.).

    I personally recommend cotton yarn for making all of my amigurumis.

    The following materials are needed:
    • 100 g cotton yarn in white
    • 50 g cotton yarn in black
    • 50 g cotton yarn in light gray
    • leftover cotton yarn in red
    • a pair of safety eyes, 15 mm, in brown-black
    • stuffing
    • crochet hook size 3
    Here is the pattern:

    A cuddly bunny to fall in love with :-)
    https://www.crazypatterns.net/de/items/24311/haekelanleitung-kuschelhase-fuer-spieluhren-geeignet?ref=Otterthaler_Haekelmaus

    To ensure the cuddly bunny is truly child-friendly, I’ve avoided sewing as much as possible. The body is worked starting from the feet, and the hands are crocheted directly onto it—they really can’t come off.

    The bunnies with and without a music box have slight differences. To avoid any confusion, I’ve created two separate, illustrated patterns—you can choose the cuddly bunny you’d like.

    • Pattern 1 without a music box, 13 pages
    • Pattern 2 with a music box, 15 pages
    • For parts that are crocheted in an oval shape, I’ve created a diagram for the first round.
    Materials:
    • 50 g cotton yarn / 125 m
    • stuffing
    • safety eyes, 10–15 mm
    • a music box (Amazon or Buttinette)—they even come in washable versions!
    • crochet hook size 2.5
    Skills:
    • single crochet
    • chain stitch
    • slip stitch
    • half double crochet
    • double crochet
    • magic ring
    • color change
