Every boy dreams of a train, doesn’t he? With this crocheted train, that dream can come true even for the very little ones, because it’s cuddly soft and completely safe! They can explore it with their mouths, scrunch it up, and throw it around without breaking a thing—and it even survives a wash cycle in the washing machine unscathed! And little sisters can even let their dolls ride along.
You can crochet the train in bright colors. The individual pieces are very easy to make and are then sewn together. The individual cars are connected with Velcro fasteners.

This slipover is a real boy’s dream for little boys (ages 1 to 3), isn’t it? Comfortable and casual, yet warm, and it leaves the arms nice and free for playing and running around! :-)

The sizes are calculated so that the slipover is still a little roomy at first – that way, you’ll definitely get a whole season’s wear out of it!

Herbärt is a hardworking bear and the ideal playmate for boys of any age! 
The clothes can be taken off (except for the sweater), and his tool belt has plenty of room for his work materials. 




For one bear you will need:

♦ Yarn in your desired colors
♦ Crochet hooks: • One hook in the smallest size recommended for the yarn. • One hook about 1 mm larger
♦ Craft stuffing or similar for filling the bear
♦ Safety eyes (if desired, in your preferred color and size.)
♦ One button (in your preferred color and size)

You should be familiar with the following: crocheting in rounds, crocheting in rows, chain stitches, single crochet, double crochet, half double crochet, color changes, decreases and increases.

There’s even 20% off until October 2! 
I hope you have lots of fun! :) 

Boys in love (and I mean really, head-over-heels in love) are sure to be happy to receive a token of love.

How about a scarf with hearts?



First, it will impress him, and second, in thick yarn it’s quick to knit, too. Then, when he’s standing in a snowstorm in winter, he’ll be warmed not only by the scarf, but also by the thought of the person who knitted it for him.
The pattern isn’t hard at all; it consists of knit and purl stitches. The hearts are shown in a knitting chart.

Cool boys need a slouch beanie. It really helps them look cool.

You can find the pattern here.



The hat is easy to knit, and the pattern is a mesh pattern. It works well with sock yarn or slightly thicker yarn.

An absolute dream for my son would be a terrarium with a real giant spider. Since I believe animals like that should live in their natural environment, I crocheted this tarantula for him, whose natural environment is now our living room.

The finished little creature is 13 cm long from head to the end of its abdomen.

You can make the spider’s legs out of wire or chenille wire. Otherwise, you’ll need some leftover black yarn, beads for the eyes, and a size 3 crochet hook.
If you want the spider to be bigger, just use a larger crochet hook!

To make this little crawler, you’ll need to know how to do single crochet, chain stitches, and slip stitches.

Have fun with your new pet, and don’t be startled if it gets thrown at you!

Fall is here—and with it the wonderful traditional costume season!
Our boys and girls look adorable when they’re out and about in traditional dress!
And if you’re not so fond of the “traditional” look, simply replace the buttons!

The basic pattern of this slipover is actually simple in design...
...but the simple cable pattern adds a certain swing to it.

A detailed step-by-step description guides you through the knitting process.
Furthermore, 5 charts in knitting chart format are included, describing the cable pattern.

The pattern is designed for size 140–146.
However, the included template and the gauge make it possible to work any size!

And this way to the pattern and more details...

For us women, love doesn’t come through the stomach...
... we really like it when our men are dressed so smartly :-)

The simple yet sophisticated cable pattern really brings some momentum to the piece.
A simple stockinette stitch pattern frames the cable look and makes it stand out even more.

This pattern is designed for sizes 48/50 and 54/56.
However, the included cut and the gauge make it possible to work any size!

A detailed description and a chart guide you step by step through the pattern.

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

Boys love soccer! How about Mario, the soccer-playing mouse? You can crochet him in the colors of your favorite team, and in the pattern I’ll also show you exactly how to add your favorite jersey number to the mouse.

The pattern includes lots of pictures and detailed explanations, so even beginners can easily follow along.

You’ll need cotton yarn for a size 3 crochet hook. You can also use thicker yarn; then Mario will be bigger accordingly.

Crochet Pattern: Christmas Pirate Neck Scarf
