Just added! He's just adorable and so soft. 😍 crochetgiftsbydawnf.etsy.com/listing/4493...

I woke up to my first Etsy sale. I'm officially in business!!! I will definitely be adding more items this weekend. 🥰 I have 1 more Goose 🪿 available at the moment. Check out my other current items here: linktr.ee/dawnfluitt More to come!!!!

I'm going to spend my weekend being creative! I'm making lots of different pieces for my mini hanging plants. I ❤️ making these. They just are so dang cute and pretty!! 😍 Y'all know the drill. Let me know!!

Zazzles is helping me crochet this morning.

First day of Spring Break and of course I've been awake since 4 am. That just means more time to crochet. I am absolutely loving how this blanket is turning out. 😍 I'm ready to get it finished so it can find its baby. Let me know if you are interested.

My to do list is overwhelming me right now and I know I'm going to have to work this weekend so I preemptively rewarded myself with the Route 44 Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper from Sonic this morning.

Does anyone want to help me get some headphones with microphones for my resource room? You can donate as little as $1 and it's tax deductible! www.donorschoose.org/project/spee...

Time for some homemade sourdough cinnamon French toast. 😋

Took a break from a commissioned project to work on an IEP and then I made something new. What do y'all think of these colors? I'm planning on using the same colors but making them all in different combos. Coasters. 4 piece set.

Time for lunch!

Snow days equals more time to practice my sourdough baking.

Crocheter, special education teacher, sourdough wanna be baker, reader, napper. I'm a night owl and an early bird simply because of perimenopause so I'm also sleep deprived. 🤣 If you can relate to any of these, then follow me.

I'm so excited to have a small stock to start offering these to my friends and family who order from me. (I don't have a website and just sell to people I know. I don't have the time nor money to really branch out for more.)

Here are my first makes of the year. They were both started last year though. 🤪 $60 each + $12 priority shipping

Emptied a project basket!! Finished up all of the Christmas tree ornaments I had started. It feels good to get some WIPs finished. Especially since I have started three more projects and bought yarn for more already since Christmas. 🤦🏼‍♀️ #crochet #teacher #winterbreak

The loaf wasn't pretty but there really isn't anything like homemade bread. Pic: Grilled ham and cheese sandwich on homemade sourdough.

I'm trying to get a rocket on my Donors Choose project. All donations are even tax exempt!! Help me give my students basic office supplies to help the classroom keep running. secure.donorschoose.org/project/offi...

I decided to try a new pattern today. It's a beanie made with HDC in BLO. 🤦🏼‍♀️ But I'm putting a gifted skein to good use. Even struggling to crochet is better than working any day!! And now it's Nap time! #iykyk #crochet #teacheronholiday

Being overworked & stressed all of the time Perimenopause and all it's glory The economic climate The political climate Being an adult

My classroom Christmas tree. Ignore the fact that the red houses are not spread out. It's because I let the kids decorate it 🤣 - 1 ornament per kid when they came for resource or dyslexia until all ornaments were on the tree.

Used my new iron Dutch oven for the first time. We shall see in an hour when I can cut into it. 🤞🏼 It sure looks pretty though. 😍 #MySourdoughJourney

It's #GivingTuesday and my project for supplies has a 1.5x match. Your gift of $10 will equal $15! Can you help us get necessary office and school supplies to help our special education resource room? And all donations are tax deductible!! bit.ly/3IyMu5J

Because I know that I'm actually lucky to have both of my girls still home at my age while most of my friends are empty nesters already...

I'm excited for a new year at a new school. I will be sharing a room with 2 other sped teachers so I need to condense my storage space. I have $10 gift cards on my list to help me purchase two cabinets. TIA! amzn.to/3wSaJBW #specialeducation #clearthelist #Texas #Year24

Good morning from the crosswalk. Only 4 more Monday alarms!

Stayed up late. Woke up early with the storms. I should work on IEPs but I'm going to sit here and crochet instead. #crochet #specialeducation

I don't feel well this morning so I'm going to sit here in my pj's all day and crochet. Time to start a new project. #crochet

I've had 3 purchased from Facebook friends and family. I only need ONE more. Is there anyone else who would like to gift one of these pattern books to my Crochet Club? #crochet #teacher

Just let me panic first. 17 IEPs. 12 of them initials. 4 written last week. Now to write 13 more IEPs in the next 3 weeks. I'm still waiting on FIEs for 8 initials. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I will not panic. I will not panic. Don't worry. I already panicked and worked out a game plan. 😁

Happy Friday!!!! It's an absolutely gorgeous day here in North Texas.

We only have 1 more week of Crochet Club left. It would be amazing to gift them these books next week. 🥰 #clearthelist amzn.to/3wSaJBW

This afternoon's project. I think he turned out cute. 😻 #crochet

When storms wake you up at 3:30 am, you make chickens. 😁 #crochet

This is a BIG ask, I know. I have 4 students that have been in Crochet Club since we started in the fall. I would absolutely love to get them this book by Crochet by Genna. They have all come such a long way and I want them to continue their skills. #clearthelist #crochet amzn.to/3wSaJBW

Crochet Club. (3rd-4th graders) They all picked out bees to make along with some other projects. I ♥️ that when they are working at home on their projects and they get to a stitch in their pattern that they don't understand or I haven't taught them yet that they are getting on YouTube to learn.

I have two sets of 4 sunflower coasters available. $25 each set. #teacher #sidehustle #crochet

I'm in love with this Sunflower. You can use it as a keychain or a bag charm. Let me know! $10 + postage 4" diameter

Help me fulfill a dream of mine of going to the San Diego Zoo this summer when I'm there for a teacher retreat. I have these baby blankets that are ready for a baby to wrap around. $10 priority shipping (US lower 48) #MakingMemories #ImpactRetreat #ImpactRetreat2025
