A perennial classic is this round collar and shoulder warmer, which also has a second function. You can knit it as a baby or doll skirt, too. And when it no longer fits, simply wear it yourself.

The pattern is absolutely beginner-friendly and written without abbreviations. There is a print version and a photo version.

This grow-with-me pinafore dress for toddlers is a sweet classic for all knitting grandmas and moms. That means this favorite piece can be worn for a very long time—from 1 1/2 to 5 years.

The pinafore dress is knitted in one piece without seams and can be worn in any season. I knitted it in cotton, but you can also use a different yarn with the same yardage.

The pattern is also very easy to understand for beginners with basic knowledge. Many steps are explained with additional photos.

The current weather doesn’t make it easy to think about winter and Christmas. But it’s sure to get much cooler at some point, so snowflake decorations won’t seem so out of place anymore.



If you want to get ready for this time of year, you could start by making these snowflakes: In my store, you’ll find a craft tutorial with a total of 18 snowflake templates that you can easily make out of tissue paper or similar thin paper.

Crocheting for babies is so much fun!
With my pattern, you can whip up a really lovely and cozy swaddle blanket that will keep your little treasure nice and warm and make your life a little easier! ;-)
“Just popping over to Grandma’s” with a baby can sometimes be quite a hassle, especially during the cold season, because you have to bring so much along and because the little one has to be bundled up and then unbundled again. If the baby then falls asleep during the ride and you wake them up while taking off their outerwear, you’ll wish you had skipped the snowsuit altogether...
That’s why you need a blanket like this! Just put on a hat, wrap the baby in the blanket while they’re still in their indoor clothes, and off you go!
Thanks to the built-in drawstring, the corner turns into a warm hood in no time, providing great protection for that delicate little head against drafts!




For lots more pictures and info on the swaddle blanket, CLICK HERE

Have fun crocheting for your baby!

Crochet pattern for a ball / balloon cover



This colorful cover is quick to crochet using individual granny squares. At the end, they’re all joined together, and a balloon is inserted as the filling. It’s a great toy for any age. Very young children can grab it if you inflate the balloon with just a little air. It can be used indoors and outdoors because it washes quickly and dries right away.

Any yarn works. The thicker the yarn and the larger the hook size, the bigger the ball will be.

You can find the pattern here

This modern triangular shawl is so fluffy and soft that you’ll want to snuggle right into it. It is crocheted from the side and is almost symmetrical.

The pattern is super easy to work. Since you mostly stitch only under chain-stitch arches, it’s wonderfully relaxing to crochet—perfect for the garden or a coffee get-together!
Everything is explained very precisely in the pattern, with lots of step-by-step photos, text, and a crochet chart.

Thanks to the lace pattern, the shawl is wonderfully airy and soft. It drapes beautifully and can be worn in many different ways.

Ready for the St. Martin’s Day parade? You still have plenty of time to make a lantern, but don’t keep putting it off from one day to the next, otherwise it could get really stressful. So it’s best to choose a lantern right away and download the instructions. For example, this one:



This lantern is made from photo cardstock and tracing paper. It has a practical size of approx. 29 x 22 x 11 cm and is easy for a child to carry. The lantern is easy to make, and all the steps are explained in detail in the craft instructions.

Knitted Scarf



Simple pattern – big impact

The pattern is worked in knit and purl stitches. What makes it special is the beginning and end: the scarf starts and ends in a pointed shape.

I used Rowan Super Fine Merino 4-ply with a yardage of 165 m / 50 g. Using a 4 mm circular needle, I used 300 g to achieve a finished length of 166 cm (short side) / 220 cm (long side) and a width of 26 cm. The 7-page pattern is described in detail and also includes a knitting chart.


Here you can find the pattern for the scarf.

Anyone who likes owls will love this table runner. :-) :-) :-)

The pattern is described in great detail and contains numerous pictures. This means even beginners can follow it easily.

" Small Christmas Trees with Pearl Decorations " Decoration, Christmas tree ornament crochet patternA beautiful decoration/Christmas tree ornament for Christmas can be made quickly and easily in three steps: 1 - crochet2 - fold3 - sew on pearls.
