May Dreams 2018: |
Otoño Elegante It's May, and it's autumn - Novermber in the Southern hemisphere. It's getting chillier in Chile. Thank goodness. I love fall, so I am fine. I didn't knit at all in May. All I came up with are these "knitting cards." Because of the technical difficulties I can't display them in a larger format on my website. Here's a little sneak peek ... :-) |

13 de mayo de 1968 How old were you in 1968? And you were probably wearing a similar dress!? For these cards, I used some of the vintage knitting magazines - Chilean, Autumn (May) 1968 - which I got at the local flea market (1.500 pesos each). Fabric is from the local warehouse. I bought 3 kg for 3.000 pesos ($6)
May Mixed Media 2011
Spring...You never know what might spring out of a simple playing with paper. You mix photos, pictures, small objects and other ephemera together and suddenly realize that it's exactly what you wanted to say. I have always been into crafts. I like creating handmade gifts for my friends and family. The latest have been some birthdays collages (for my daughter and friends). I liked the process of making them and decided to add a little bit of knitting into it. It worked, and my passion to the art of knitting started shining in a different way. It looks like I am into mixed-media!! It was a wonderful discovery for me, and I am still learning. All the collages you see below consist of something knitted, a piece of music, an old book, some special (for me) paper, and a message. Happy spring to everyone :-) |

The new yoga What do knitting and yoga have in common? A whole lot more than you might think :-) In a nutshell it's meditation, breath and a little time every day to connect back with yourself. My schedule hasn't allowed a lot of quality knitting time recently. It has to change... :-)
