White and Black + Gray + Red + Purple // start crafting now

Dear users, dear designers,
usually in life nothing is just white or just black; there are shades of gray and, of course, plenty of splashes of color. If you like, you can add something red. Red is on trend and is as eye-catching as it is lively. If you don’t like it too bright, you might try a Bordeaux red / wine red; it will be quite popular in 2018. This may also extend to violet, purple, and purple. Everyone is sure to find a suitable color for yarn / fabric / photo cardstock.

@Designers,
2-3 patterns are enough. Don’t forget the link and image, as well as the usual info.

When the holidays arrive, Barbie likes to dress up, too. In a sparkling little black dress with a fringed hem and matching hat, she looks great anywhere. A silver clutch completes the outfit.
To crochet this ensemble, you’ll need black-and-silver leftover yarn (e.g. Gründl: Glitter), some black fringe yarn and silver yarn, as well as a 2 mm crochet hook.
The dress is very easy and also suitable for beginners.

Cardigan/Long Knitted Jacket MARGIT Sizes 38 to 46 OneSize - Oversize





(To purchase/download, please click the image)

This comfortable, cozy knitted piece in an oversized style weighs only approx. 275 g with the yarns used here, so it is feather-light. Both stitch patterns used are absolutely easy. The collar shaping requires a little attention. The length is variable.

The model shown is knitted with double strand and needle size 6.0 using 175 g KidSilk by Austermann plus100 g Merino Lace by Austermann. Alternatively, yarns can be chosen with a needle size suitable for the yarn that roughly correspond to a gauge of 17 sts = approx. 10 cm with 6.0 knitting needles, e.g. approx. 450 g Dolce Mohair (Mondial) - knitted with a single strand. Further yarn alternatives - also without mohair - are listed in the pattern. Stitch markers highly recommended.

The illustrated PDF pattern with stitch-by-stitch and row-by-row instructions is based on the gauge mentioned above. Due to the casual shape and stretchiness of the jacket, one stitch more or less is not so crucial. If there are larger deviations in gauge, please choose a larger or smaller knitting needle size. The pattern does not include a knitting course, but it does include relevant link tips.

These red leggings with white stripes are perfect for children in the cooler months. They’re quick and easy to knit.



What makes them special: They’re knitted in one piece from top to bottom - entirely with a circular needle! If you like, you can of course also use a set of double-pointed needles for the legs. 

I used a yarn with 65% virgin wool and 35% alpaca here. But any sock yarn can also be used for this.

The special knitting pattern gives these leggings a great fit in every size - and they grow with the child for a while! The pattern describes size 86 - 98 for children aged 1.5 to 3 years.
