Little Sheep Egg Cozy Crochet Pattern
Click here to go directly to the crochet pattern

What you need:

• approx. 15 g yarn (it's best to use 100% cotton craft yarn; this will make the egg cozies nice and sturdy. Of course, you can also use any other yarn) in white or brown, suitable for a 3 mm crochet hook. Leftover yarn in green.
• darning needle and scissors
• a little stuffing for the head
• 3 mm crochet hook.
• googly eyes and superglue

To give the little sheep a better woolly look, I crochet with “bobble stitches.” I explain these to you at the beginning of the pattern and illustrate everything with pictures. That way you'll understand this technique very quickly ;-). All the other steps are also illustrated and clarified with lots of pictures.Difficulty level: medium; you should already have a little crochet experience ;-) and not choose the little sheep as your first crochet project.The little sheep egg cozies are a super cute eye-catcher on any breakfast table! Also ideal as a gift ;-) !!!

Sheep Egg Cup Crochet Pattern

Crochet these cute sheep egg cups!! They’ll brighten up any breakfast table and make you smile first thing in the morning. The little sheep are truly a fun eye-catcher and also make great gifts! I crochet the “fur-like” texture using bobbles. I explain this in detail at the beginning of the pattern using pictures. I also use plenty of pictures throughout the rest of the pattern to better illustrate each step. This makes the crochet pattern quick and easy to follow! You should be comfortable working with single crochet stitches: increasing and decreasing stitches, as well as making a magic ring. 16 illustrated pages of crochet pattern
Difficulty level: intermediate, but easy to understand and quick to make thanks to the many pictures. What you’ll need

• A 3mm crochet hook. Approximately 15–20g of yarn/wool in the color of your choice (white, cream, beige, brown, black... after all, sheep come in all sorts of colors ;-) ). This yarn should be suitable for a 3mm crochet hook. I crocheted the sheep using 100% cotton yarn, which makes them nice and sturdy.
• Some stuffing for the head and feet
• A darning needle and scissors
• Googly eyes and superglue

Definitely not for beginners, but for people who are up for a bit of adventure, is this double-knit scarf.

The name of the technique already says a lot: all rows are actually knitted double, front and back at the same time, which creates the effect that the colors on the opposite sides are exactly mirrored. This takes quite a bit of practice.
The pattern itself is shown in several knitting charts. For materials, you should plan on about 300 m of each color—assuming a yardage of 150 m per 50 g.

The pattern for this knitted hat isn’t difficult in itself, but it does have its pitfalls. You’ll need to pay attention here.

You can find the pattern here.



The lace pattern is designed so that the stitch counts keep changing. That can be confusing if you’re not used to it. But the result is really something to be proud of. The pattern continues all the way to the tip and gets smaller and smaller until it disappears completely into the decreases.
The hat is knitted with sock yarn, using approx. 150–170 m, depending on the size you choose, so it’s more of a lightweight piece.

A great knitting pattern for everyone looking for a new challenge is the pattern for the stylish Eryn shawl!




Eryn is the Elvish word for “forest” or “woodland.” The leafy vine in this pretty semicircular shawl inspired me to give it this name.

This beautiful shawl with an unusual shape is knitted from the top down—first with a classic center stitch, which then splits later on. Small beads can be worked into the leafy vines.
The highlight is the fringe, which is knotted into the edge at the end.





The shawl can be used in many different ways. With its look, it fits right into trendy boho style and can also be worn as a poncho when fastened with a pretty brooch or pin. This pretty shawl is also perfect as an accessory for a beautiful dirndl or as an elegant eye-catcher with evening or even wedding attire.

The finished measurements after blocking are approx. 180 x 73 cm. Gauge: 25 sts x 30 rows = 10 cm, stockinette stitch, needle size 3.5





Materials needed

• approx. 1000 m yarn (e.g. cotton, merino wool, linen, hand-wound designer yarn—the yarn should not be thicker than sock yarn), usage for part 1 approx. 30%, for part 2 approx. 70%
• knitting needle suitable for the yarn used
• 2–4 stitch markers
• beads (e.g. seed beads)
• a piece of very thin wire (for threading the beads) or dental floss
• crochet hook for knotting in the fringe
• sewing needle for weaving in the ends
• scissors
• stitch holder (e.g. cable needle)

Skills needed:

• knit stitches
• purl stitches
• yarn overs
• knitting stitches together
• crossing stitches

The pattern is 18 pages long and includes detailed row-by-row instructions and detailed charts, as well as a tutorial for threading beads. The pattern was test-knitted and checked for errors. Difficulty level: Intermediate

An airy challenge — the Ayana crescent shawl!


>>> to the pattern <<<

The delicate Ayana crescent shawl is crocheted from just over 150 g of sock yarn and is a small challenge, because every row has a different pattern. - You definitely won’t get bored while crocheting!

The pattern includes 18 pages - there is a crochet chart for all rows, written instructions for all rows (with photos for each row), as well as a short version of the instructions without photos for printing.

Because of the constantly changing stitch sequences, the shawl is a bit more challenging and therefore not something for “crocheting on the side,” making it better suited to more advanced crocheters.

Measurements (unblocked/blocked):
Width: 1.00 m / 1.20 m
Depth: 40 cm / 55 cm

You will need:

• Sock yarn in 2 coordinating colors (yardage 210 m / 50 g)95-100 g color 1 - lilac
  55-60 g color 2 - purple
• 1 crochet hook size 5
• 1 sewing needle/embroidery needle for weaving in the ends

You should know how to make:

• chain stitches
• slip stitches
• single crochet
• double crochet
• treble crochet

this crochet set (m/f) in fashionable gray  consists of a beanie and a Möbius scarf collar/loop.

The PDF pattern is illustrated and designed for head circumferences from 52  cm to 60 cm. It includes both – hat and loop (loop in one size).

Timeless indeed...
An elegant lace necktie scarf in mohair quality is always a classic!

The highlight is the incorporated beads!

The total length of the scarf is about 112 cm, and the width is approx. 16 cm.

A detailed description as well as knitting charts guide you through the knitting process.

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

A beautiful set consisting of a hat, cowl, and wrist warmers in merino quality.
Worked in a sophisticated lace pattern.

The hat is designed for a head circumference of approx. 50–53 cm.
The cowl has a circumference of approx. 80 cm.
The length of the wrist warmers is about 16 cm.

A detailed description guides you through the entire knitting process.
For clarification, you will find 3 charts in knitting chart form in the pattern.

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

This jumping jack owl has a little extra feature: Unlike typical jumping jack figures, it doesn’t just “jump”—both the wings and the tail fan out when you pull it.


 
The owl is made from photo cardstock (colored cardstock) and measures approximately 22.5 x 27.5 cm. It’s actually not difficult to make: The detailed instructions, along with the positioning and assembly guides, explain and demonstrate everything, but it’s probably not the best choice for a very first craft project.
