All children love cuddly toys. And a fluffy little kitten crocheted by Mom, Grandma, or their favorite aunt is something very special! The kitten is crocheted using only single crochet stitches. It becomes especially cuddly if you use the suggested teddy yarn (Phil douce by Phildar). But of course, you can also use another similarly thick yarn.

Once Christmas is over, it’s time to start thinking about the next one!
As soon as the holidays are over and you’ve had a chance to recover a bit from the hustle and bustle, you can already start preparing for next year. This makes particular sense for Advent calendars—for one thing, the 24 containers take time to make, and for another, you can fill the calendar with lovely little treats throughout the year.



This calendar is made of photo cardstock and measures approximately 28 x 4.5 x 32 cm. The individual boxes measure approximately 4.5 x 4.5 x 7.8 cm. The calendar is very easy to make and is also suitable for beginners.
