Crochet pattern for a sweet little bag

This little gift bag is perfect for many occasions. Wrap a small gift, attach it as an extra to a larger gift, or bring it along to a party with a mini bottle of Piccolo and some snacks. It works up quite quickly.

I have explained everything step by step and in great detail in a 7-page PDF file with lots of pictures. This means even beginners can easily make these little bags and compare their results. A small crochet school is also included in the attachment.

There is also a 2-page short version without pictures for printing.
The little gift bag is about 17.0 cm wide and 18.0 cm tall.


Materials
  • Catania by Schachenmayr 125m/ 50g, 2 colors, about 55 g total
  • Crochet hook 3.0 mm (or as desired)
  • Sewing needle/darning needle
  • Scissors
What is crocheted
  • Chain stitch
  • Slip stitch
  • Single crochet
  • Double crochet
  • Half double crochet
Have fun!

It is also well suited for beginners.

If you want to give money as a gift, you should choose special wrapping for it so your gift doesn’t seem unimaginative or impersonal. Why not tuck it into this cute reindeer coin purse? It’s sure to go down well!
To crochet the coin purse, you’ll need brown, white, black, and red cotton yarn (Catania), beige fluffy yarn (Maya) (or cotton yarn), some toy stuffing, and a small clasp frame. Small amounts of yarn are enough.
The pattern is very detailed and guides you step by step to the finished piece.
You can download it here!

When you wrap Christmas gifts in wrapping paper, you'll quickly notice that many packages look much too similar to tell them apart reliably. To keep things straight, you can use gift tags: Write on the back who the gift is for and who it is from, and attach it to your gift, for example with a cord.



The gift tags are 5.5 to 6 cm tall and made from photo cardstock. You get a total of 17 templates that you can combine however you like.

Small bags are always a great way to wrap little gifts. You can knit them very easily from sock yarn; a small leftover is enough.

You can find the pattern here.

Winter motifs are often in high demand, especially around Christmas time. A knitted hat with a winter landscape does require quite a bit of skill, but it looks great. There is a knitting chart for trees, snowflakes, and white clouds, and the pattern itself comes in 3 different sizes.

You can find it here.
