Crochet Afghan Blanket, Earth Ombre, Handmade Throw, Unisex Gift

This gorgeous crochet afghan blanket 100% acrylic in the color earth ombre. It is 40 inches wide and 52 inches long. The earth ombre color gives it a warm, cozy look making it a great handmade throw for a cabin or hunting lodge.

The stitch used is a double crochet cross-stitch. This means that one stitch crosses over three stitches. This causes the back of the afghan to have a waffle look. Therefore, it looks great on both sides.

A crochet afghan (blanket) will be a great housewarming gift or a gift for a college student moving into a dorm. This handmade throw will also make a great gift for Christmas. This crochet afghan blanket will be a great unisex gift. If you want to be ready when you need a nice gift this handmade throw will be perfect. It can be given to an elderly person or to someone grieving to give a little comfort.


Thank you for sharing my afghan!

Unisex Ying-Yang Stretch Bracelet, Yoga & Tai Chi
Men's Boho Jewelry, Evil Eye Beads, Tiger's Eye

This unisex yoga and tai chi stretch bracelet is a stylish spiritual piece, perfect for men as well as for women. It would make a great gift for anyone who loves meaningful jewelry—perhaps a practitioner of meditation, tai chi, or yoga, or someone who is simply drawn to spiritual beliefs and religious symbols.

The highlights of this bracelet include the following:

• Silver yin-yang charm (one-half inch long)
• Brown tiger's eye round beads (8mm)
• 5 carved bone beads (9mm; made in India)
• Silver-plated lantern beads (4mm)
• Sterling silver round beads (3mm)
• Handmade black tassel (1 inch long)

The charm is from TierraCast (made in USA), with shiny silver plating and a stamp of the yin-yang symbol on the front. The yin-yang is a powerful symbol of inner and outer balance, and a significant image for anyone in active pursuit of self-growth.

The tiger's eye gemstone beads are a mix of brown hues, from dark to medium shades of color. The hand-carved bone beads provide a bright complement. Three of the bone beads are incised with concentric circles that form an "evil eye" symbol—an ancient talisman believed to protect its wearer against evil. The belief is found in the history of many cultures.

The lantern beads flank the charm and tassel dangles, with sterling beads also added for the charm dangles. As for the tassel, I made it from embroidery thread, using a dab of glue to secure the knot of its binding thread. Also included here are silver-plated jump rings and high-quality elastic cord (made in USA).

The general length of the bracelet is 8 inches, and it should fit an 8-inch wrist. If you don't mind loose bracelets, it should fit fine on a 7.5-inch wrist. If you have any questions about sizing, please contact me.

This gemstone yoga or tai chi stretch bracelet was handmade by me with care, thought, and best wishes for its destined wearer. It comes in a nice organza bag, wrapped and ready for gifting to someone special—perhaps yourself!
