Es ist der vierte Advent und so gerade ebenrechtzeitig, schaffe ich es, euch eine Anleitung für einen niedlichen gehäkelten Weihnachtsmann fertig zu machen. Ok, er sieht ein bisschen Hippsta-mäßig aus mit den wallenden Haaren und dem kurzen penibel geshavten Bart. Aber mal ehrlich: ist er nicht zauberhaft 😉 Wer es etwas weniger hippsta mag, kann die Haare weglassen und die Mütze einfach so auf den Kopf setzen. Ich habe einen großen, langen Weihnachtsmann und eine kleinen kurzen auf diese Weise gehäkelt. Die Zahlen hier gelten für den kleinen, kurzen. Wer den großen Santa häkeln möchte, nehme Nadelstärke 2,5 (mit passender …
Free Crochet Pattern: Medusa Amigurumi Doll Part 1
There is an annual Amigurumi Design Contest over at http://amigurumipatterns.net, which I noticed last year for the first time. Unfortunately it was too late already to participate, so I waited all year for the new contest to begin. When the announcement finally came, I was so exited. This years theme is Amigurumi Monsters, which, to be honest, is not really a topic I worked on before. So I had to think for a long time how I could participate with a design which stands for Monsters and for the things I usually do at the same time. Finally I came …
Free Crochet Pattern: Elephant Amigurumi
When a friend asked me to design an elephant for her friend’s a baby girl, I was delighted by the idea. She wanted to have a non-gendered toy without any pink or glitter or any other chichi. So I came up with this blue elephant amigurumi with big and gentle brown eyes. If you are searching for a cute toy which matches either boy or girl, you are very much welcome to do your own.

Foto-Tutorial: Puppenperücke im Stil von Arielle der Meerjungfrau
Arielle, die Meerjungfrau ist wohl einer der ersten Kinofilme, den ich je gesehen habe. Vielleicht liegt es daran, vielleicht aber auch an der herrlichen Unterwasserwelt und meiner eh schon so großen Liebe zum Meer, dass Arielle bis heute eine meiner liebsten Disney-Prinzessinen ist. Und das, obwohl Disney die Märchenvorlage ziemlich verbogen hat, ein Märchen, das ebenfalls zu meinen liebsten gehört. Auf jeden Fall habe ich fast den ganzen August damit verbracht, eine Häkelpuppe zu entwerfen, die Arielle gleicht. Und da eines der wichtigsten Merkmale das knallrote Haar ist, möchte ich die Anleitung für diese Frisur als erstes mit euch teilen. …
Free Crochet Pattern: Fish-Amigurumi „Dory“
I don’t know were it came from but suddenly I had the urgent need to design and crochet my own version of „Dory“ from „Finding Nemo“ (and „Finding Dory“). Once in my head I absolutely had to do it. But then I found it more difficult than I thought and it took a while to work on the characteristics of the little fish. Well, I know she is not perfekt. Her eyes are a little large, but I love her anyway and I hope you will, too. So here we go for the pattern.

But I grew to love this little dolly more and more each day. For you she has the absolute advantage that you can easily turn her …

Fluffy the Unicorn’s Youtube-Channel!
I finally made it. The whole week I have been working on my first video-tutorial and my fluffy crochet channel on Youtube. My very first video tutorial is – of course – about a unicorn. It is indeed the unicorn keychain, because one of you, my dear readers, asked me to do a video on that. So thanks a lot for this little hint, it really opened up a new perspective for me and this blog. I am quite sincere, though, that I did make all of the beginner-mistakes one can make. But after redoing the whole thing quite a …
