This funny set of egg cups and egg cozies will put you in a cheerful mood for a hangover breakfast! The two clowns "Dummer August" and "Weißclown" are crocheted from cotton yarn with a yardage of 125 m/50 g (e.g., Catania by Schachenmayr). Just a few scraps of leftover yarn are enough.
This lets you crochet a fun decoration for the breakfast table during carnival season in no time.
Here's the pattern!


A transformable Easter bunny: when you turn the inside out, the Easter bunny becomes Santa in no time! My grandchildren love this reversible doll and always set it up opposite to the season. When I complain, they laugh their heads off.
The "Nikolausi-Osterhasi" reversible doll is not difficult to crochet and is a lot of fun! It mainly uses single crochet stitches. For yarn, I recommend Catania by Schachenmayr and a thin fluffy yarn.

Crochet pattern: Special KITCHEN FISH Potholder




(To purchase/download, please click the image)

This fish is not a fish for eating, but a potholder kitchen decoration fish, crocheted from potholder yarn for a size 4.5 crochet hook, e.g. Record 210 by Schoeller+Stahl, 50 g – 90 m

used here:
100 g Limone mint green (crocheted with double strand) or 100 g Record 210 in green, 50 g natural white, 50 g light gray; there will be a little left over of each color, so you could crochet a regular potholder from the leftovers. Also required: scissors, yarn needle for weaving in ends.
Note: Potholder yarn is a so-called “plied yarn,” i.e. the strands are not twisted together. 100% cotton is heat-resistant. If heat resistance is not required (for example, if no pot will be placed on it), cotton blend yarns are easier to work with.
