of textured ribbons, beads, and various fabrics attached both inside
and outside. People with dementia often have restless hands and like to
have something to keep their hands occupied. </span></span></span><span style="font-size: medium;"><span class="ILfuVd" lang="en" style="font-family: georgia;"><span class="hgKElc">Very important, all decorating items should be securely attached so that patients cannot pull them out. </span></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span class="ILfuVd" lang="en" style="font-family: georgia;"><span class="hgKElc">Here are the two of the muffs that I made.

It became a UFO. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">Now this summer, as I wanted to have a separate bag for my shells and <a href="https://thelittletreasures.blogspot.com/2023/09/sea-glass-bottle-bag.html">sea-glass bottle</a>, I took it out - but there was no way I would crochet the other side;

I have gathered a nice collection during the years, which I plan to put to use soon and have a couple of projects already drafted.</span></div><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">This year I thought I would enlarge it even more, only to be baffled by the sparsity of shells and sea glass on the beach. Especially the latter. My husband jokingly remarked that we visited calm, quiet and secluded beaches fit for the middle aged (!) and not where the wild parties are, hence no broken bottles to produce sea glass. Although I didn't collect a lot, I am pleased that the beaches were clean and not polluted. In the last picture you can see what I collected. There were mostly large chunks of white and green glass - sadly. Which brings me to my sea glass bottle.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">I crocheted a snug casing for the bottle to secure it from being broken by the shells, as this bottle went into another shell (collecting) bag, which I am going to share in my next post. </span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">Do you harvest the beaches on your holidays?

He loves hoodies too, and they are actually the first choice when he dresses for school, but when he wants to be smart he throws a sweater over a shirt. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">I have been toying with the idea of making him one and that's how I ended up perusing the internet for crochet pieces for men, and this is how this post was born. On the internet, mostly you'll find scarves, hats and socks, and occasionally a sweater - but all I have found regarding the latter is sweaters either for young boys or grown-up men. Nothing modern or hip for high-school boys. And that's the reason why I am tempted to design one myself. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">If you know of a sweater pattern for young adults, please share the link in the comments. </span> <br /></div></div>Maya Kuzmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02774179260347442250noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8292459454390876053.post-11871949596849956342023-08-15T20:51:00.002+02:002023-08-15T21:08:57.464+02:00Happy Granny Square Day!<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVtMNLnXWZ2Qw2kzvMi0xhSMX_bZQWCSvPrE5eXAnsQIoquZketUiBFA9zUOtR4Pa-IBBdv6fiFvwZSuXBo4ls7RIYBETMUNelSDxDLsLyQMcQGPeonzW6SkfHyLKNisxMAx6r0Lfkqu7Gct8JhhaR3XTb48jJ587v9Ty3wCVx74ntBAP2055tN7arudqg/s1601/viber_image_2023-08-15_20-23-06-337.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1601" data-original-width="1261" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVtMNLnXWZ2Qw2kzvMi0xhSMX_bZQWCSvPrE5eXAnsQIoquZketUiBFA9zUOtR4Pa-IBBdv6fiFvwZSuXBo4ls7RIYBETMUNelSDxDLsLyQMcQGPeonzW6SkfHyLKNisxMAx6r0Lfkqu7Gct8JhhaR3XTb48jJ587v9Ty3wCVx74ntBAP2055tN7arudqg/w504-h640/viber_image_2023-08-15_20-23-06-337.jpg" width="504" /></a></div><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="721" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8c_egtQuZqhdBo3faYdyqPd2p8xOsoZKav_q2G_RQn8dkCIoK_I63C1gm-sgOBiGbCSRbHL5_z9EO3TN8k_KLxrq8Av10LofAjX_ZeO0PBACOhcMo0OrmcmDr3iw6Gc6jn0hUOFmlupEIbukN8_9Yr0Nz4HUkbmLo_i-iAtk36lScWwlDGfsCdMKzX6UM/w288-h640/viber_image_2023-08-15_20-23-06-880(1).jpg" width="288" /> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Happy Granny Square Day! </span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span style="font-size: medium;"> </span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span style="font-size: medium;">This is my newest granny design I just made today to celebrate the day!

font-size: medium;">Social media are a mind-blowing thing. Not that I just became aware of the fact, but I get flabbergasted every time a trend blows out of proportions. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">So, one of the current crochet trends popular with young people and teenagers are these cute bears, bunnies and turtles. We might throw an octopus or a whale for good measure. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">I have several regular (customers) teenagers who love to shop the velvet yarn for these toys and some of them earn their pocket money by selling these toys. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">One of them is <a href="https://www.instagram.com/tcrochetlove/">Theodora</a>, my most fervent and prolific customer. She can knock several of these toys in a day!! </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">Out of the 4 velvet brands that I have in my shop, Alize Velluto and Ayda Baby Vellur seem to be the most popular. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">My experience with velvet yarn is very poor, but I started a baby blanket with it and I love it so far. What about you? Have you ever worked with velvet yarn? Are there brands you prefer?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: medium;">(Click on Theodora's IG profile to check out her toys. She has every single pattern designer tagged if you wish to peruse velvet crochet toys making) </span><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"> </div></div>Maya Kuzmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02774179260347442250noreply@blogger.com3
