These are my current TOP 5:

Crochet Hat for Everyone - very easy
Made from approx. 250 g of merino yarn with 50 g - 45 m yardage. A wonderfully
easy-to-crochet hat for various styles, so
ONE hat model wearable in all the variations shown, for both men and women. Easy to make for children too, or as a simple hat for babies (though a thinner yarn is recommended). And the best part: no gauge (it doesn’t depend on the centimeter), no increases or decreases, possible in all sizes with any yarn you like. The
PDF pattern is illustrated.
Conversion Table for Yarn Amounts, Alternative Yarn for Knitting and Crochet
This is an Excel spreadsheet for automatically converting a yarn amount from the “original yarn” to an “alternative yarn” of your choice. This requires Excel or a free spreadsheet program available on the web, such as LibreOffice.
Sock Knitting Course for 4-ply Yarn - all sizes for baby, children’s, women’s, and men’s socks
This is an illustrated sock knitting course worked using baby socks size 15, knitted from 4-ply sock yarn, with tables
for all sizes.
Included in the
download:
- fully illustrated main PDF pattern
- handwritten sketches
- baby sock table for sizes 15 - 20
- sock table for sizes 22 - 47
Knitted Shirt/Sweater “ALGARVE”
Two in one pattern:
sleeveless long shirt, ideal for leggings, and
with sleeves, a cotton sweater knitted in a simple openwork pattern .Because of the pattern, it results in
ONE SIZE for women’s sizes 38 - 44. Smaller sizes can be worn “oversized.” Weight gain or loss is therefore no problem.
Required materials: 300 g (without sleeves) / 550 g (sweater) mercerized cotton yarn, here Austermann Algarve (100% cotton; 50 g – 142 m) for needle size 2.5 – 3.5
Knitted Poncho/Stole, Featherlight - very easy
This is a
short pattern for a featherlight and
very easy-to-knit one-size poncho made from only 100 g KidSilk (Austermann). The pattern includes the preview image. These knitting skills are sufficient: cast on stitches, edge stitch (your favorite edge stitch), knit and purl stitches, bind off.
I recommend beginners choose a different yarn instead of mohair.
By the way: The poncho can also be knitted as a warm outdoor poncho with thick wool, 100 g - 100 m, using needle size 8.0. Required yarn amount approx. 700 g. The stitch count always depends on the individual gauge; recommendation for this:
