To the crochet pattern

Amid all the Christmas stress, you should at least treat yourself to a little peace and quiet in the evening. A small, simple project is just the thing.
How about these egg cozies, for example?

They’re very easy to crochet from a little leftover yarn and don’t take much work, so you can even finish them in time for Christmas. That way, you can surprise your loved ones on Christmas morning with a pretty, festive table decoration that’s also useful!

Are you still looking for pretty gift tags for your parcels or some Christmas tree ornaments? If you still have some glitter yarn or leftover cotton yarn at home, you can relax in the evening and crochet a few ornaments:

With this pattern, you can crochet 4 different ornaments: a star, a snowflake, an angel, and a bell.

" Little Christmas Trees with Pearl Decorations " decor, Christmas tree, Christmas tree ornament crochet pattern



A beautiful Christmas decor/Christmas tree ornament can be made quickly and easily in three steps: 1 - crochet2 - fold3 - sew on beads. The decorations (size approx. 8 cm x 10 cm) are very well suited for Advent and the Christmas season and create a cozy atmosphere. They can also be used beautifully as door and window decorations for the festive season. Not much yarn is needed to make one decoration, so these can be crocheted from leftover yarn. Ideal way to use up leftover yarn!For the " Christmas trees " I used the leftovers from the following yarns: • crochet thread 10, "Maddison" (50g, 250m) color no. 08 light green • crochet thread 10, "Maddison" (50g, 250m) color no. 01 white • crochet thread 10, "Maddison" (50g, 250m) color no. 10 dark green • acrylic beads (diameter approx. 3- 4 mm) • crochet hook no. 1.00Alternatives: yarns "DMC" no. 10, or "Anchor" no. 10, or also "Pro Lana Häkelstar 100". It can be crocheted very quickly, has an easy difficulty level, and should not be a problem at all for a beginner. The following basic crochet skills should be known: chain stitch, single crochet, and double crochet. The detailed pattern consists of 8 pages and is described step by step in German with numerous photos and a chart

Rudolph - The Red Nosed Moose is still a great project to start now, even if he might not be finished in time for Christmas. 
After all, as a moose he can look great all year round and delight children’s hearts.

Here’s the pattern   


He is big enough to hold a music box and works wonderfully both as a toy and as a decoration. I crocheted him with cotton yarn (yardage 125m/50g) and a size 3 crochet hook.

If you’ve finished all your New Year’s Eve preparations and still have a little time left, you might want to add this festive tea light holder to your table decor.



The tea light holder is made of cardstock and measures approximately 18 x 2.5 x 18 cm. With a little crafting experience and practice cutting with a craft knife, it’s very easy to make.

This headband is a small project for the weekend.

For this crochet pattern, you’ll need to know single crochet, half double crochet, and double crochet stitches. And of course chain stitches. The pattern is worked over one row, and for the headband one skein with a yardage of approx. 110 m / 50 grams is usually enough (e.g. Schachenmayr Soft Wool LL 110 m/50 m, needle size 4).
