Using the lace pattern above, you can—depending on the yarn you use— 

• scarves
• stoles
• tablecloths / table runners
• sweaters—either full-length or as an accent piece

and other items.

I hope you enjoy knitting these projects.

Done it all already and looking for the ultimate thrill? Give double knitting a try!
A scarf made up of several different motifs that are mirrored after the center. With this technique, you actually knit every row twice. This creates a sophisticated play of colors. What is light on the front is dark on the back, and vice versa.

Here is the pattern.

Crocheting in the tapestry technique isn’t actually that hard, since you only crochet single crochet stitches, but you should have a little experience so you don’t get mixed up with the different colors. You also need to count very carefully and crochet with even tension. But if none of that scares you off, you can create wonderful things!

The two Polar Bear and Penguin potholders will surely feel right at home in your kitchen. Normally they live at opposite ends of the world, but here they are together in harmony. Get them now!

This beautiful modern bag combines tapestry crochet and the double stitch technique (both explained in detail). With this special stitch (double stitch), you can crochet in rounds without any offset—making it especially well suited for tapestry crochet. Beautiful straight and diagonal patterns can be worked in.

You should have some experience for this hat. It is knitted in a lace pattern using sock yarn, and you do need to pay a bit of attention to the pattern. The pattern is written out round by round and also shown in a knitting chart.

Here you can find the hat.

If you’re looking for a little challenge, this decorative heart is just the thing: It’s actually not particularly complicated to make, but you should definitely have some crafting experience and (especially important!) be skilled at using scissors and a craft knife.
 


The heart is cut out of cardstock, measures approximately 21 x 22 x 4 cm, and is then hung up, for example, from a nylon thread.
