Goldfish swimming to Australia—where on earth would you find something like that? Surely only in a fairy tale! Or on a knitted handbag.



The bag itself isn’t difficult to knit—you should have a bit of practice with two-color knitting, but you don’t have to be a pro.
You’ll knit with cotton yarn (125 m per 50 g), one skein of each color, using a 3 mm circular needle. The handles are then crocheted; for this, you’ll need a crochet hook of the same size. You might also want a snap button for the closure, and if you’d like to line the bag, you’ll need some lining fabric as well.

But Snow White grew up and became more and more beautiful, and by the time she was seven years old, she was as beautiful as the bright day and more beautiful than the queen herself. Once, when the queen asked her mirror: “Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the fairest in all the land?” it replied: “My queen, you are the fairest here, but Snow White is a thousand times fairer than you.”

To match, there is a Snow White shawl. It is knitted from 4-ply sock yarn. You need about 350 m of the main color, plus a leftover amount (about 70 m) of a contrasting color. That is enough for a shawl with a span of 150 cm; if you want a larger shawl, you should allow for more. It is knitted on 4 mm needles.
Two different lace patterns are used, both written out row by row and also shown in knitting charts.

The pattern can be found here.

The little witch is a kind witch and grants you 3 wishes with a "hexhex": 
  • She chases away boredom, because you'll have fun crocheting
  • She chases away your children's boredom, because they'll have even more fun playing with the finished finger puppet
  • You'll never be bored again, because your children's friends will say: "Will you make one for me too?"
All you need is a little yarn and the pattern:

Wishing well? Well, Rodolfo the Frog King definitely belongs in this thread. After all, he lives in a well, and he has plenty of wishes too – for example, that a magical knitter comes by and knits him up a frog brother! So, grab those knitting needles!

You can find more info and the pattern here: CLICK!

Hmmm... difficult question...
Days with 36 hours? 8 hands? 200 m² of storage space for my yarn?
All wonderful... but actually I would wish for health and contentment for my loved ones ;-)

I’m happy and content when I find a little time for crafting; for example, this project brought me a great deal of relaxation:

Beautiful colors + simple pattern + great cut = a snood you just have to have!
This loop scarf with a tartan look appears sophisticated, yet is so easy to make that it is also suitable for beginners !

The circumference is about 80 cm, and the height is approx. 50 cm.
However, the included cut and the gauge make it possible to adjust the size individually.

You’ll also find a chart of the color scheme as well as a detailed description in the pattern.
In addition, detailed photo documentation guides you through the knitting process.
The tartan technique is also described and illustrated in detail.

And here’s where you’ll find the pattern and more details...



I wish you lots of joy and, above all, good health—knitting is supposed to promote both, after all ;-)

A wishing well could send me lots and lots of new ideas,
so that I can keep knitting something wonderful, and of course
gorgeous yarn to go with it!

here is my idea for a pair of cute baby espadrilles,

essential for spring and summer, and with the simple
pattern, they are finished quickly too!

Here is the pattern:

If I found a wishing well, this is what I would wish for:


That all my four-legged friends are happy and healthy (and of course the rest of the family too).

With this crocheted cozy spot, I fulfilled a wish for my house cats. There will have to be more soon, because everyone is crowding around the sleeping spot. So I killed two birds with one stone and fulfilled wishes twice over.

Here is some info
  • Dimensions: diameter approx. 40 cm
  • Material: soft wool and cotton yarn
  • Reversible: one side with paw appliqués, appliqués with single crochet and double crochet (hook size 3)
  • one side with a crocheted-in paw, crocheted in directly
  • the mat is crocheted in continuous rounds with single crochet (hook size 6)
  • The border is crocheted on directly with single crochet (hook size 5)

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥Here you can find the pattern for dreaming

Everyone certainly has lots of wishes... I do too... but what could be better than happy and content children? That is definitely a big wish of mine and also the reason why I crochet so much for children.

For example, these rattles, which also make sounds. They are especially suitable for babies, but older children can still enjoy playing with them too. They encourage the instinct to play, coordination skills, and the joy of movement. They also often inspire older children to engage in role-playing.

With these rattles, you also dive into the world of the Middle Ages, an often magical time with many fairy tales, legends, and myths.

The crochet pattern can also be crocheted by ambitious beginners, because it includes many pictures and detailed instructions for the individual work steps.

Here is the pattern: Crochet Pattern Rattles Knight - Princess - Pirate

This “little black dress” brings a bit of magic with it...

Who says knitted pieces can’t be elegant?
Not at all! This long top is the perfect companion for any candlelight dinner or trip to the opera!
The pattern is kept simple, but the special cut and the slit in the back create the effect!

This pattern is designed for sizes 36/38 and 40/42.
However, the included cut and gauge make it possible to make any size!

A detailed chart also guides you through joining the back and front pieces.

And here’s the pattern and more details...
