Hardly any insect species is as diverse in color as butterflies: from white to black, across the entire color spectrum—there isn’t a single color you won’t find on the wings of at least one butterfly species. With these colorful butterflies, you can try out countless color combinations and express your creativity with color.



The butterflies are made of photo cardstock and tracing paper, measure approximately 27.3 x 14.5 cm, and are easy to make, even for beginners.

You can crochet these colorful bunnies in all sorts of colors. They’re done in a flash and make a pretty table decoration or a mobile. A wonderful little crochet project to use up leftover yarn!

Or would you prefer little kittens ?

They’re just as quick to crochet and make a sweet little gift for cat lovers. They’re also very cute as gift tags!

The bunnies and kittens were crocheted using scraps of Catania (cotton yarn by Schachenmayr, LL 125m/50g) with a 2.5 mm crochet hook.

A perfect summer loop scarf, knitted from cool cotton ribbon yarn,

to the pattern

The pattern is very easy, as the stitch pattern repeats throughout!

That makes it ideal for knitting beginners, too.

It mainly uses knit and purl stitches, yarn overs, and knitting stitches
together, all well explained with pictures!

Perfect for warm days—whether over a bikini at the beach or over a tank top in the city—always an eye-catcher!

The mesh pattern is stable and does not stretch out of shape, because the passed-over stitches are worked alternately.
It is also pleasantly simple, so even beginners will enjoy this pattern!

A detailed description guides you through the knitting process.
The pattern is listed row by row.
For clarification, the pattern also includes 1 knitting chart.

This pattern is designed for sizes S / M / L / XL.
However, the included schematic and the gauge swatches make it possible to knit any size!

And here’s the pattern and more details...

The pattern used looks complex, but is so easy to make,
that even beginners will enjoy it!

A detailed step-by-step explanation guides you through the crochet pattern.
Row by row and stitch by stitch are explained.

However, it can be made smaller or larger as needed—with little effort.
The stated gauge helps with that!

For anyone who needs to think about gifts for starting school this year, I can help with one aspect of the planning: gift wrapping.



This gift bag is made from cardstock and measures approximately 12.5 x 26 x 10.5 cm. The side panels can also be made from suitably printed cardstock, which saves you the trouble of cutting out all those circles. The bag is easy to make and well suited even for beginners.

Bangles or bracelets are the perfect addition to any outfit and always catch the eye. Here, I’ll show you a special method for making stylish bangles quickly and easily with just a few materials.

All you need is an old plastic bottle and some yarn (possibly a rhinestone chain) — and in no time at all, you’ll have a truly unique piece of jewelry. Also great as a gift or a little present.



The sophisticated design, the harmonious color combinations, and the pleasantly
soft material make these pieces of jewelry special and unique.

Most little girls want to feel like a princess every now and then and, of course, wear a crown —and they should! Especially on their birthday!


 
With these templates, your little princess and her birthday guests get a lovely crown shape that can be decorated according to their taste and fine motor skills. The crowns are about 10.5 cm high at the front and can be glued (or stapled) closer together or further apart depending on head circumference.
