The Sleepy Knitter

Adriana, 25, she/her. I craft, and I’m in grad school (= constant exhaustion). All my projects take forever.

I'm certain this is on Tumblr somewhere, but I haven't seen it around, so I'm sharing it myself

Beekeeper’s quilt progress! 🐝🧶

I started this project in February of 2023 after seeing @ditsyknits’ rainbow hexipuff quilt! I found a way to knit the puffs together in rows, and I figured out my color pattern ahead of time. In the end, I’ll just be sewing the rows together. This is just one of my many WIPs!

Here’s how I predict it will look in the end:

Scrap Blanket Update

I'm slowly working through my piles of scraps and making progress on my blanket. I imagine I'll run out of scraps sooner than I want, and then I'll have to work on knitting more socks so I have the scraps to add to my blanket!

I finally finished a Cape Woolamai sweater for my mom! This one took me a solid three months to finish :') Pattern by Judith Brien

It took me a while to make this idea work. But I do like the way it looks now. And after knitting a couple of repeats, I got into a kind of rhythm.

Still on my knitting kick; just finished the colorwork yoke of this sweater for my lovely wife and put the sleeves on scrap yarn so I can work the body.

The rest of the body and sleeves will be this solid blue tweed with little flecks of color, mostly orange, which is going to carry the orange of the yoke through beautifully.

I never posted this sweater here but I love it so much and I need as many people as possible to see it. It’s entirely made with scrap yarn and it fits so nicely!! It’s like a yarny hug 🥰

Finally finished the beautiful Midnight Hare gloves by HattieKerrs on Ravelry! These are by far the most beautiful thing I’ve ever knit, they look like something out of a Jan Brett picture book. They’re going to my mom for Christmas, who will give them the love they deserve.

The brown yarn comes from an alpaca farm in my area as well! Can’t recommend the pattern enough, these were a joy to knit!
