To make the crust, cream the butter and sugar, add in vanilla and flour. Press into a 9″ round greased, spring form pan, covering the bottom and 2″ up the sides. To make the filling, mix the cream cheese and sugar until smooth, add in the egg and vanilla, Spread over the bottom of the crust. For the topping, sprinkle the cinnamon and sugar over the apples and mix well. Spoon over the filling. (you can make it pretty by layering but I don't and it tastes just as good!). Sprinkle with the walnuts. Bake for 10 minutes at 450 and then reduce heat to 400. Continue baking for 25 minutes. Allow it to cool completely before removing the sides of the pan. Note: You can also add 1/2 t. almond extract to the filling and use sliced almond instead of walnuts! If you want to be fancy and give it a shiny glaze, warm some apricot jam and brush it over the top when it is done baking. Affiliate Link Disclousure This post contains affiliate links.

Maybe: Wool auction at the Monterey County Fair, in Monterey, CA, on Labor Day Pacific International Quilt Fest October 11-14 2018 Stitches West, February 21-24 2019 Dungeons and Dropped Stitches videocast! Mother Knows Best:(30:43) This week we answer a question from the "What do you want to hear about?" about how to be philosophical and positive about knitting attacks. How do you handle it? Let us know. When Knitting Attacks:(36:39) Gigi started the Vitamin D cardigan three times, used a highlighter for stitch markers in the pattern, and used a different color to highlight sleeves. Jasmin ordered the wrong stitch markers, then DIY fixed them Gigi lost a game of chicken with the Purlbreak. Review:(41:33) This week we review Firmament, Stellar Stitches For Your Next Adventure, by Hunter Hammersen (PREORDER LINK WILL BE HERE) Straw into Gold:(46:30) Jasmin PLIES! She finished spinning another of Nicole Frost's batts (rose gold batts). She’s been plying up a storm. Jasmin enthuses about the Akerworks Kate. And Sew On:(51:16) Gigi is working on a camp shirt. Textbook directions were rather optimistic.

Looked at project pages for ideas for adding short rows in back. Didn't find any but I did find a link in pattern page by KnitWit50 on how to have a better transition between stockinette and ribbing that I'm excited to try. Check out photo in the Tech Knitter Blog Post. It really does look much cleaner and evens out the knit stitches that trail down into the ribbing From the Armchair B.A. Paris books - psychological thrillers loved both Behind Closed Doors and the Breakdown.

Quote of the Week “People that feel happy, successful, and fulfilled by their lives and work all have one thing in common: they feel as though they are making progress on something that matters...what I do, as stupid as it sounds, is I don’t focus on balancing everything. I focus on just making sure I make progress on one thing a day. That’s right you heard me, just one thing a day that matters to me. Now, if I can make progress on one thing a day that matters to me, then I can let go and let the rest of my day get hijacked by kids, by my spouse, by phone calls, by emails, by social media, by all kinds of things that come up and tend to hijack your day when you are a busy person.” – Mel Robbins ------ Thank you for tuning in!

On the Needles Pewter Socks Pattern: Non-Eucilidian by Sarah Jordan Yarn: Olann Hand Dyed in Ireland Sock Lite in the Pewter Colorway Needles: US 1.5 (2.5 mm) Heel notes: Cuff down only. The heel turn takes what feels like a long time. You're adding stitches but still working in the round. It takes many rounds to increase out for the heel but the turn itself felt quick. Much less purling than any other heel flap I've done. No picking up stitches. I think it will be easy to memorize which is important to me.

But that's life, right? I've eased up and adjusted. It was a good reminder that we need to be able to pivot. Go with the flow... It will all be ok. Ask Me Anything Question from Michelle- chellescraps on Ravelry: I am interested in what type of ball winder and swift you have or would recommend. I am getting to the point that I could really use one. I know that I would rather spend more money on something that would last, but I do not need the gold version. Answer: I have a Stanwood swift that I bought on Amazon. I love it and it's held up well. At $52 it's not cheap but its not crazy expensive either. I like that i folds down and doesn't take up a lot of space. I have the Nancy's Knit Knacks Ball Winder. I have this one. At $299 it's a huge investment. I'm not 100% sure I'd have purchased it for myself. My mom kindly gifted it to me for Christmas. I've had it for a few years now and it's amazing. I've used others at friend's houses and nothing comes close to the experience I've had with this. If you want a more in depth comparison of these items I'd check out Episode 300 of the Knitmore Girls podcast. On a Happy Note We've had three Nor'easters here in Boston already this March! For us that's meant at least 4 days without power, 2 of those had us trapped at home when a tree took down the power line in the driveway. Dan and I made the best of it, chatting, listening to podcasts and crafting. During the second storm, I got struck down with my first virus of the season and it was a doozie! T I was able to my niece Riley’s 1st dance competition. She did great! Planning my nephew's Garret’s birthday celebration. He wants to go to one of the trampoline park type places and then for me to bring my big camera to his dirt bike race. I had my costume fitting for Cabaret. Most of my costumes aren't family-friendly but here's one I can share. Quote of the Week Don't expect much from a drowning man. He's not going to offer you a candy bar or ask how your day was. He's too busy not drowning. Generosity takes effort. It requires the space to take your mind off your own problems long enough to see someone else's. It requires the confidence to share when a big part of you wants to hoard. And it requires the emotional labor of empathy. Generosity begins by trusting ourselves enough to know that we're not actually drowning. -Seth Godin ------ Thank you for tuning in!
