Flauscheinhorn goes Youtube! Anleitung für einen Einhorn-Schlüsselanhänger

Es ist so weit. Die ganze Woche habe ich fieberhaft daran gearbeitet, meine erste Video-Anleitung fertig zu stellen. Jetzt ist sie endlich auf Youtube hochgeladen. Sie ist nicht perfekt – wahrscheinlich habe ich alle Anfängerfehler mitgenommen, die man so machen kann. Aber für einen ersten Versuch kann sie sich in meinen Augen schon sehen lassen.

Das erste Anleitungsvideo auf meinem Kanal zeigt, wie du dir einen Einhorn-Schlüsselanhänger häkelst. Die ganz neu überarbeitete schriftliche Version des Tutorials findest du hier. …

Free Crochet Pattern: Sally Bowles Doll

When I started my dancing lessons at the age of five, my teacher was just planning a performance she called „Once upon a time in Hollywood“. It was full of Cabaret, Cancan and Americans in Paris. It was back then when I first met Marilyn Monroe, Josephine Baker and Liza Minelli as Sally Bowles. Of course those were the roles for the teens and grown ups. I myself acted as a so called „Mini Girl“ dancing my very first Charleston. Well, from those days on, I did never again lose the interest in the age of the roaring twenties. Today …

Free Crochet Pattern: Mermaid

I’ve been trying out some ideas lately, because I desperately wanted to design a crochet doll. Actually, I wanted to do a doll version of Ranja, the Robber’s daughter and I really worked out a prototype. But then, however, I was not happy with her head and suddenly I was sitting in the middle of a bunch of crochet heads, each one worked with a slightly different pattern.

Here comes a new free crochet pattern from my series „animal with kid“. This time I designed a lion father with his teenage son for my wildlife-mobile-project.

So here we go: You’ll need: Cotton yarn in orange and a slightly too small crochet hook. I used drops Muskat and a 2.5mm hook Crochet yarn in yellow. I used Rico Essentials Crochet and a 0.75mm hook Cotton yarn in red Bits and pieces of black …
