Tausendschön ist ein herrlich großes, wunderschönes Häkeltuch.

Wegen seiner leicht asymmetrischen Form kann es auf vielfältige Weise getragen werden. Kleine Blümchen, die dem Schal auch seinen Namen gaben, werden gleich mit angehäkelt und sind das Highlight!

Das Tuch kann in vielen Garnstärken nachgearbeitet werden. Auch die Größe ist frei variierbar.

Benötigte Materialien:

• ca. 1500 Meter Wolle 3 bis 4fädig (z.B. Lacewolle, Farbverlaufsbobbel oder Sockenwolle)
• Häkelnadel Größe 3 – 4
• Nähnadel
• Schere
• Küchenwaage (um den Verbrauch auszurechnen)
• ggf. etwas Sprühstärke

Für das Tuch werden nur Grundkenntnisse im Häkeln benötigt, daher ist die Anleitung für Anfänger bestens geeignet.
Wie die Blümchen gehäkelt werden, zeigt ein Fototutorial.

Maße nach Fertigstellung: ca. 184 – 90 cm (kann aber auch kleiner oder größer gearbeitet werden).
Die Anleitung umfasst 12 Seiten und enthält eine ausgeschriebene Anleitung sowie Charts, eine Schemazeichnung und ein Fototutorial.
Schwierigkeitsgrad leicht.

Und das Beste: Noch für kurze Zeit kannst du bis zu 25% auf den Anleitungspreis sparen.

Auenland - Heimat der Hobbits aus Tolkiens “Der Herr der Ringe” steht Pate für dieses hübsche gestrickte Tuch, das von oben nach unten gearbeitet wird.

Die halbrunde Form entsteht durch Zunahmen am Rand und im mittleren Teil, wofür zur besseren Übersicht Maschenmarker gesetzt werden sollten.

An dem Tuch können an den Zipfeln kleine Troddeln aus Perlen angebracht werden, da dies aber nicht zwingend ist und jeder nach eigenem Geschmack entscheiden kann, bin ich darauf in der Anleitung nicht weiter eingegangen.

Benötigtes Material:

• 2 - 4fädiges Garn (Lace- oder Sockenwollstärke), evtl, auch dicker, ca. 600-800 Meter
• Rundstricknadel Stärke 3 - 4
• Nähnadel zum Vernähen der Fäden
• Maschenmarker (2 Stück zum markieren der mittleren Maschen wie in der Anleitung beschrieben)

Die Anleitung umfasst 10 Seiten und enthält eine schriftliche Anleitung sowie detaillierte Charts und eine Schemazeichnung. Sie ist für Anfänger wie für Profis gut nachzustricken.
Schwierigkeitsgrad leicht bis mittel.

My classics and also my personal favorites....

The Othello family :-)
Looks like the kids have pounced on Mom and Dad. A fluffy family to love.


https://www.crazypatterns.net/de/items/17775/haekelanleitung-schnuffelhund-othello

The large dog is crocheted with acrylic (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, a long blunt needle, and you can either use teddy bear eyes or embroider them on. From 50 cm (standing) to 23 cm...or somewhere in between if you use different yarn.
From beginner to pro....everyone loves Othello :-)


  

For all cat fans and dog lovers. A cute way to use up leftover yarn. As a keychain or bag charm. 
10 - 20 g leftover wool/yarn, the matching crochet hook (2-3), some stuffing and, if desired, two small eyes if you don’t want to embroider them on. Chain stitches, single crochet, increases and decreases. Then the charm is pretty much finished :-) Anyone who has crocheted now and then will enjoy making the cat and/or the dog.

A favorite in every child’s room. Cuddly friend by day, protector by night. Emil, the little hero to love :-)
Approx. 120 g wool, 1 hook, stuffing and 2 eyes. Single crochet, half double crochet and double crochet. Anyone who has crocheted an amigurumi now and then will have no trouble with Emil. 
Get started right away—the delighted children’s eyes will thank you.


Have fun crocheting :-) 

The absolute highlight in my shop is Seppl Sleepyhead.
His favorite thing is his little bear comfort blanket. So get him quickly, because he would also love to cuddle with you. :)

You will receive a detailed 41-page pattern with lots of photos to follow along. The doll is approx. 36 cm tall.

The PDF includes the pattern for the doll, the sleep overall, the pom-pom hat, the comfort blanket, the pacifier, as well as the bear slippers.

Also suitable for ambitious beginners click here to go to Seppl

Who wouldn’t want to go to bed with such a cute little sheep? Its eyes are already closed, and it’s just humming a little lullaby to itself.
You can add a music box to the lamb’s belly; if you use the suggested fluffy yarn, it will play your very own favorite melody.
The little sheep is very easy to crochet because only single crochet stitches are used. But you should perhaps have worked with fluffy yarn before. Otherwise, any other yarn will work too. The size of the lamb will then depend on its thickness.
You can find the pattern here.

Ein echter Klassiker aus meinem Shop ist das 

schnell genähte Lesekissen

Jeder - egal ob Nähanfänger/in oder erfahrene/r Näher/in - näht sich aus einem Stück Stoff schnell ruckizucki ein (oder ganz viele) tolle/s Lesekissen.
Auch als besonderes Geschenk ist das Lesekissen immer ein Volltreffer.

A classic among shawls for beginner knitters is the Magnolia Shawl.




It’s made with a gradient yarn cake, worked in garter stitch (both right-side and wrong-side rows are knit stitches), knitted from top to bottom, with increases on both sides and in the center, a neat edge finish, loosely cast off—and you’ve got a beautiful, large, cozy shawl.

The shawl’s appeal lies in its simplicity and the yarn’s color gradient. The pattern is also great for using up leftover yarn. There are no limits to your creativity. You can find exactly what you need to make this project here . If you still have questions, I’m happy to help.

And the best part is, until March 31, there’s a 30% discount on many patterns in my shop. Be sure to stop by.

Best regards,

Christa

Mini Shopper Crochet Pattern

Baby Traditional Knit Cardigan Size 50/56, including gauge conversion chart


(Click the image to purchase/download)

...THE classic traditional style in miniature...
For this easy-to-knit baby traditional cardigan, you’ll need approx. 100 g of yarn with approx. 150 m per 50 g, e.g. Zimba Top by Schoeller+Stahl in classic traditional grey, plus 50 g (or leftover yarn) of Regia 4-ply in traditional green for the edging, size 3.0 knitting needles and, if needed, a size 3–3.5 crochet hook for the decorative foundation chain on the placket.

• The PDF pattern contains 15 images.
  
  
• You’ll also receive an Excel spreadsheet to quickly convert your gauge to your desired size (applicable to all knitted/crocheted pieces). This requires a spreadsheet program such as Excel or LibreOffice (available as a free download online).

Basic knitting skills are required (i.e. they are not illustrated).

Links and tips for learning to knit and crochet can be found on my website https://swollkoerberl.jimdo.com/ under the “Free Downloads and Links” section.

Required knitting skills: long-tail cast-on, knit stitches, bind off, increase stitches (from the strand between stitches), yarn over (for the buttonholes), knit 2 stitches together.

By the way: This jacket can also be knitted as a vest without sleeves (in that case, crochet around the armholes once in green using single crochet stitches).

Conversion Table for Yarn Quantity, Alternative Yarn for Knitting and Crochet



(To purchase/download, please click the image)

This is an Excel spreadsheet for converting a yarn quantity from the “original yarn” to an “alternative yarn” of your choice.

Example:
The original yarn specified in your pattern has a yardage of 85 m per 50 g. According to the instructions there, you need 600 g of this “original yarn” for your size. But you would like to make your item in a different yarn (= alternative yarn). This yarn you have chosen has a yardage of 70 m per 50 g skein. You enter this information into the Excel spreadsheet and immediately receive the required quantity of your chosen yarn in skeins and grams.

A gauge swatch is always advisable. To determine the number of stitches needed for your individual knitted piece, as a bonus the simple version of my Excel conversion table for your gauge is included.

Technical note:
My Excel spreadsheets are based on calculated formulas and therefore require a spreadsheet program to open them, such as Excel or a free program available for download on the internet, such as LibreOffice. (The calculations would not work in PDF format.)
Then the file can be opened with a double-click.

Sometimes the white input fields in Excel spreadsheets cannot be changed, and the message “Protected View” appears at the top of the screen — then please click “Enable Editing”.

Wishing you lots of fun with all your projects.

(To purchase/download, please click the image)

This is a brief PDF pattern for a featherlight and very easy-to-knit poncho in one size made from just 100 g of KidSilk (Austermann). The pattern includes the preview image.

You’ll find links and tips for learning to knit and crochet on my website https://swollkoerberl.jimdo.com/      under the section “Free Downloads and Links.”


By the way: The poncho can also be knitted nicely as a warm outdoor poncho with thick yarn, 100 g - 100 m, with needle size 8.0. Required amount of yarn approx. 700 g. The stitch count always depends on your individual gauge. A new printable PDF table for looking up the corresponding stitch count, as well as further calculation aids, is available here (click me).
