Enid
Meet Enid, our fiber arts guide at Good Energy Ranch! She’s been teaching knitting and crochet since 2012, though her roots in the craft go much deeper—learning crochet from her grandmother and mother in the 1980s and discovering knitting in 2005. Enid brings a wealth of experience, including cross stitch, needlepoint, and embroidery, and she also owns The Yarn Barn of San Antonio, a longtime hub for fiber lovers.
Her teaching style is all about patience and play: “One stitch at a time,” she says. “Nothing is breakable in fiber arts—you can always undo it or just go with it. A pattern is simply a ‘mistake’ repeated over and over again.” Whether you’re picking up needles for the first time or rekindling a long-lost hobby, Enid offers a warm and welcoming space to explore the magic of making by hand.

A talented artist and published painter, Carrie also leads workshops in Linocut and watercolor painting, nurturing creativity in every form. If you hear laughter from the garden or Yoga studio, that's Carrie—always ready with a smile and a warm invitation to say hello.
