Stacked Enchiladas

Here are some step by step pictures of how to make the stacked enchiladas. Scroll to the bottom for recipes. Stacked Enchiladas I love this meal. It was my way of using corn tortillas for enchiladas without having to roll them. When we lived in Colorado we called this enchilada layers. We when moved toContinue reading “Stacked Enchiladas”

Blocking Day!

Yesterday was blocking day. In Colorado my studio was large enough that my blocking table was always set up. Here that isn’t the case. When I need to block something here I have to set up my table on the back patio. I watch weather for rain, not often and wind. Neither were happening yesterdayContinue reading “Blocking Day!”

Chart Reading Swatches

This weekend’s project was making swatches for an upcoming workshop I’m teaching at the Las Cruces Knitting Guild. It is chart reading. I chose 4 popular knitting techniques to show how charts can be used. Color work, texture,lace and cables. I still need to block the swatches and make some changes to the chart. OtherwiseContinue reading “Chart Reading Swatches”

Photo Shoot

I took some photos of the Advent shawl yesterday. This pattern will soon be getting its final cover! The pattern is called Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. I used the Advent skeins for 2022 from Southern Skeins to design this piece. Lots of texture to keep the knitter interested and showcase the colors. Still simpleContinue reading “Photo Shoot”

Bed Spread

This is a piece I have been working on for almost a year now… I am enjoying it but it is slow because I am using crochet thread and a size 6 steel hook. My grandmother loved bed spreads in this weight of yarn and the color I’ve chosen is also in honor of her.Continue reading “Bed Spread”

Brick and Mortar Shoot

My hubby took me to breakfast this past weekend and I decided to do a shoot while we were there. Here are some of the photos. All are unedited and I haven’tContinue reading “Brick and Mortar Shoot”

Changing Choices

In the Switch It Again Hat you have two choices when changing colors. Some people when changing colors in ribbing like to knit every stitch. This works well because you don’t have any of those visible loops of color showing and doesn’t change the stretch of the piece. The other choice I’m going to shareContinue reading “Changing Choices”
