Texas Coconut

I made a baby blanket for a friend of mine who wanted a personalized gift, that only the recipient would understand. He asked for a blanket that had "Possum Blossom" on it. He knew the new momma had nicknamed her son before his birth. I was told, at her baby shower, when she opened her gift, she held back some tears. She loved it!! I may make myself a few sweaters now and then, but making something that is unique and special to someone, is the best reward I could ever receive. That makes my heart smile and worth it. #crochetaddiction #tapestrycrochet #crochet #bigtwistyarn #bigtwist #joann #joannyarn #babyblanket #handmadegifts #crochetlovers #crochetersofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsl_0pflwu1/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ilzd2f0g7pu6

I finally finished my top down pink, warm and soft hygee yarn sweater. Thank you #redhearthyggeyarn #redheart #redheartyarns #crochet #crochetaddiction #crochetersofinstagram #tunisian https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsl9abeFvRR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=n6efax1vv7ok

Do you find yourself taking a break from a long project, so you begin other small projects? 😀 I set this project aside and recently picked it up again. I have to make a slight modification to my tension in the arm; it's been awhile, but I'll soon enough pick up my groove. This is extremely simple. Top down, single stitches and the bottom trim is Tunisian knit stitch. I'm excited to wear this.

I'm an @allaboutami junky. I mimicked her display. Instead of crocheting the mouth, I made mine out of felt. Definitely check out her Instagram and blog. She is amazing! This is a baby bonnet I created for my Neice. I used bulky bernat yarn. A bit challenging but rewarding once done. #yarnaddiction #crochetaddiction #crochetersofinstagram #babybonnet #crochet #bernatblanketyarn (at Round Rock, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq_JTVhlACJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=iiepb1kvpkpc

I live in an apartment complex and there are dogs, including my own. Do you see where this is going? Dogs poop, but unlike us, they can't clean after themselves so their owners do it. Unfortunately, not all owners feel the same. One of those owners, left a nice surprise outside of my door, so I diy'ed a sign. 😊 I used some Waverly paints and their inspiration stencils. I'm a novice with stencils so forgive my imperfections. Either way, I believe my sign expressed my disappointment. Want a bet whether the owner of the poo will notice? Lol. I can't wait to find out. Cleaning up the community with one sign at a time. #waverly #waverlyinspirations #waverlyinspirationspaint #diytheheckoutofit #diy #poop #dogpoo #baddogowners (at Round Rock, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqLAyVnlDM8/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=18j6lrgowe9s9
