Post Exilic

By -

It's been a very long time my dears,
I feel like it has been a decade, but I know it has only been over a year since I step foot in this place, my safe place, my happy place!
This past year has been hectic, busy to the max, I was the adult in charge of having three kids at home for schooling.  My sister needed help and I had to, I'm a big sucker for those kids, they are the cutest thing ever and as I always repeat, I like the bad life!! 🙊
This hard season was a time to reflect, review and evaluate priorities.  I have come to termns that I love to Blog, even though I do not do it often.

 Despúes del exilio...

Ha pasado mucho tiempo mís queridos!   Siento que ha pasado una década, pero sé que solo ha pasado más de un año desde que puse un pie en este lugar, ¡mi lugar seguro, mi lugar feliz!

Este año pasado ha sido agitado, ocupado al máximo, yo era el adulto a cargo de tener tres pequeños en rol semi profesora en casa, con la escuela en linea. Mi hermana necesitaba ayuda y yo tenía que hacerlo, soy una loca de esos niños, son lo más lindo del mundo y como siempre repito, me gusta la mala vida !! 🙊

Esta dura temporada fue un momento para reflexionar, revisar y evaluar prioridades.  Y despues de evaluar, sigue gustandome esto de blogear, aunque no sea seguido.

I have knitted so much during this year, you can always go to my Instagram account entwined_mar to see, but here are some for you to peek...

He tejido mucho este año, puedes encontrar mas acerca de ls tejidos en mi cuenta de Instagram, pero aqui también te dejo una ojeada de algunos proyectos...

PODCAST
Jesuknits & Corralito Yarns
Youtube , Instagram - Jesuknits , Corralito Yarns 
I found this girl through Carmen Tye, who told me that it is very fun to listen to her and without a doubt it has been, because it brings me close to my Chilean roots and her expressions are clearly and culturally entwined to her nationality. Entrepreneur, compulsive knitter, lover of fine fibers, which are 100% represented in her yarn material, which she now also offers to her clients abroad. Entertaining, assorted and real podcasts of the daily knitter life.

a esta chica la conoci por medio de Carmen Tye, quien me dijo que es muy entretenido escucharla y sin duda asi ha sido, pues me acerca bastante a los modismos Chilenos al hablar y sus expresiones son neta y culturalmente muy pegadas a su nacionalidad.  Emprendedora, tejedora compulsiva, amante de las fibras finas, las cuales son representadas 100% en su materia prima, que ahora ofrece también a sus clientes en el extranjero.  Podcasts entretenidos, surtidos y reales de la vida diaria en el tejido.

Elephant - our E of the month

By -
Image
Did you know that...  There are three different species of elephant – the African Savannah elephant, the African Forest elephant and the Asian elephant. Elephants are known for their large ears, tusks made of ivory and their trunks – which are actually a fusion of their nose and upper lip. But my Elephant  came from a pattern in Etsy named ELA . I found her casually, I was looking for something to write about for July in our BacktoBlogger post and through my list of possibilities I found Elephant and started my search for something with them but after a whole day, I got nothing. So since the internet works with algorithms, my phone had the trace about elephants and my Instagram sent me a nice knitted picture of the above pattern and the rest is history. I modified the dress a bit to have a little of lace, see below diagram in case you want to copy my idea. I knitted mine in 100% cotton, "peaches & cream", used a left over thread from another project that I will

Gelatine with evaporated milk - Bavoroise

By -

One of the dessert that never fail in a birthday party, specially among kids is a dessert with gelatine. In Chile we have a very well known one called Bavoroise. Fluffy, light and very tasty. RECIPE  1 can of evaporated milk chilled 2 cups of gelatine, prepared as package instructions ( I usually make it with half of the water requested) 1 cup of heavy cream/whipped cream (optional) 1 cup of strawberries or any berry available (optional) Whip the evaporated cold milk with a kitchenaid mixer until it has double the amount, becoming very fluffy and thick.   Add whipped cream if you are adding this ingredient.   Once mixed and all becomes whipped and fluffier, add prepared gelatine, mixing well with a mixer.    With a wooden spoon or a spatula mix in the berries if you are adding this ingredients and set it in individual glass molds.   Let it rest in the fridge for al least 4 hrs but overnight is better. Garnish with berries or even mint leaves for a pretty display

D for designer

I was really nervous about this month's entry, not because there is nothing to talk about but because I personally did not have anything in mind until I was in front of a pattern designer while visiting Chile. While in Chile I used my personal instagram to post pictures of my travels, a designer that I have worked with, contacted me when she figured out we were in the same continent and country.  She wanted to meet me in person as many of us in this circle have only met virtually. Estaba algo nerviosa por la entrada de este mes, no porque no haya nada de qué hablar, sino porque personalmente no tenía nada en mente hasta que estuve frente a una diseñadora de patrones mientras visitaba Chile. Estando de vacaciones, utilicé mi instagram personal para publicar algunas fotos de mi viaje, por ende ella  me contactó cuando descubrió que estábamos en el mismo continente y país.  Quería reunirse conmigo en persona, ya que muchos de nosotros en este círculo, solo nos hemos reunido vir
