For me, it's the socks with the super-simple heel. If you were unsure about knitting socks only because of calculating the heel, this heel makes it easy.



   Knit socks without an annoying heel, 38/39

You need 199 g of yarn and a set of double-pointed knitting needles, 2.5 to 3.0, and then you can get started.
Have fun knitting and enjoy your warm feet


Top   2

These are the warm little pants, also knitted from sock yarn. Again, 100 g is enough for the little pants.

    
Knitting pattern for cute baby pants, size 50-56


They also grow with your baby, depending on how you roll up the cuffs.

Is this knitting pattern for the cozy baby hat with gloves, knitted on two needles

   
 Warm, cozy baby hat with gloves knitted on two needles.
The warm hat with the gloves knits up quickly, and the gloves keep little hands nice and warm. For 0–3 months. This also makes a very lovely Christmas gift, or a little present to bring on your first visit to the baby.

My patterns are always written without abbreviations. Having to look up what something means slows down the work and spoils the fun. 
This pattern is also very well suited for beginners.


Top   4  

Are the beautiful baby leg warmers.



Knitting pattern for baby leg warmers (0–3 months), knitted on two needles

These leg warmers are knitted on two needles and are suitable for beginners. The pattern is simple and explained in detail. 

You will need white yarn and purple yarn, approx. 30 g each, and two needles for yarn size 2.5 to 3.0.
Of course, you can also knit the leg warmers in white/pink, white/blue, or whatever colors you like.

Top   5

For that, it’s best to go to my shop; you’re sure to find your Top 5 there too. So this weekend is for knitting—the weather is not going to be kind to us.
You still have plenty of time to get the right yarn from your yarn shop.

Have fun knitting in the warm parlor

This owl has a traffic-light function, which is very practical. It does its job anywhere, for example on the WC, bathroom, or child’s room door. Mine hangs outside my office, and everyone knows whether they may come in or not. By the way, the owl also makes a great Christmas gift for everyone in the family.

In my shop there is also a little bear as a door guard, or even both as a set.

Here is the crochet pattern for the owl as a door guard.

1. Cuddly Kitten
The curious baby kitten becomes especially soft and cuddly when crocheted from fluffy yarn. There are tips for this in the pattern, too. Of course, you can also work with any other yarn.

The little lamb can also be crocheted from cuddly yarn. A music box was added here as well. That way, every child will love taking the little sheep to bed in the evening.

5. Alpine Crochet Appliqués
You can quickly whip up these appliqués from a few leftover yarn scraps. You can use them as fun pins or decorate bags, door wreaths, or hats with them.

Helpful calculation aid:





This is an Excel spreadsheet for converting a yarn quantity from the “original yarn” to an “alternative yarn” of your choice.

Example:
The original yarn named in your pattern has a yardage of 85 m per 50 g. According to the instructions there, you need 600 g of this “original yarn” for your size. But you would like to make your piece in a different yarn (= alternative yarn). This yarn you have chosen has a yardage of 70 m per 50 g skein. You enter this information into the Excel spreadsheet and immediately receive the required quantity of your chosen yarn in skeins and grams.
