Crocheted with fluffy yarn, it becomes especially cuddly. The pattern gives you valuable tips for that. Only single crochet stitches are used.

This bag is crocheted "only" in single crochet stitches, so there are no complicated techniques.
Definitely also well suited for beginners.

No. 5



Crochet Pattern A Heart to Give as a Gift

You can design the heart entirely individually.This heart is quick and easy to crochet.
