Chocolate and brownies? Well, then Carlos Brown Bear certainly can’t be left out – even if he’s a little more into gingerbread! Carlos is a wonderful companion through thick and thin thanks to his medium size, because he also fits in a child’s backpack. He is fairly easy to knit, and anyone who has gained a bit of experience with a set of double-pointed needles can easily knit him. For the slightly trickier parts, the pattern guides you step by step with lots of pictures!

Carlos is already waiting for you here: CLICK!

This hat, knitted in a bamboo stitch pattern, is chocolate brown.

You can find the pattern here.



As a special eye-catcher, it features buttons, though these are purely decorative. It’s knitted in merino wool (85 m per 50 g) with 5 mm needles—first in rows and later joined in the round.
The pattern is available in 4 different sizes, from child to large adult.

Brown like a piece of dark chocolate...
A shawl for fans of simple knitting—plain and without a lot of frills.
Classically knitted from the center using a cotton yarn.
Best regards
Caro

 Fussel and Flocke   

  
Baby owls to love :-)

A fluffy way to use up leftovers :-) This is how you get rid of that last skein of winter wool and end up with a great result.
Approx. 200 g hat wool (150 g/165 m) for the body and approx. 100 g fluffy yarn or mohair-style yarn for the rest. Hook size 5, a little stuffing, a blunt needle, and two eyes. Fussel and/or Flocke are crocheted quite quickly with the thicker wool. Chain stitches, single crochet, increases and decreases. Even for ambitious beginners, this is a project that will make the weekend a little nicer :-)
Your leftover winter wool will still be turned into something cozy when it's already too warm for a hat or scarf. 
Fussel and Flocke can, of course, also be crocheted with any other yarn; this only changes the size from the current approx. 35 cm and the amount of material needed. 

Have fun crocheting :-)

Jojo the monkey isn’t just chocolate brown—he also loves to snack on chocolate. After all, he needs plenty of energy to climb all over cables, pencils, and laptops.
You can crochet Jojo using just a few grams of brown and skin-colored yarn. Then he can serve as a keychain, bag charm, or good-luck charm. Get the pattern here: Jojo the Monkey

And here is the pattern and more details...


Crochet pattern: Chubby kitten by Diana’s kleiner Häkelshop 

Playful little kittens to love and cuddle. They’re house-trained and love to snuggle.

Cotton yarn was used here, such as Schachenmayr Catania, Gründl Cotton Quick Uni, Katja Capri or Limone by Schöller & Stahl. You can use any cotton yarn with a yardage of 125 m per 50 g, or of course your favorite yarn. The size may vary depending on the type and weight of the yarn.

The kitten measures approximately 17 cm in height to the tips of its ears.

You’ll also need the following basic materials:

• Crochet hook size 2.0
  
• 2 black half-beads, 10 mm each
  
• Brown jewelry wire / nylon cord for the whiskers – an alternative using yarn and standard glue is also explained in the pattern
  
• Clear-drying glue
• Sewing thread in white, black and pink
  
• stuffing
  
• Scissors
  
• Stitch marker and row counter
  
• Hot glue gun
  
• Sewing supplies

The pattern is 23 pages long and includes lots of pictures to guide you step by step. Thanks to the detailed description, my patterns are also suitable for beginners.

Are you, like me, real little chocolate lovers and on top of that absolutely love animals? Or do you know a dog or cat owner you'd like to surprise with a little treat?
Then this cell phone case with paw appliqué in chocolate brown/natural might be just the thing!



The cell phone case is quick and easy to crochet from a few leftover yarn scraps (e.g., approx. 25 g cotton yarn with a yardage of 125 m/50 g) and is easy to make even for advanced beginners.
All you need are chain stitches, single crochet, half double crochet, and double crochet—the pattern explains everything else in detail with clear illustrations.

And since not all phones are the same size, the pattern naturally includes the instructions for 2 different sizes of the cell phone case. That way you can be sure everything will fit properly in the end and the phone will be well protected from scratches and small bumps.

Little tip: Depending on the animal lover’s personal taste, this cell phone case also looks great in other colors. Just give it a try!
