I'm Manuela, born and raised in Italy, engineering studies, working in family business and mom. Knitting helped me during though times in 2018, evolving into a mental refuge. The designing process blends my love for math and creativity. Inspired by Nature, books and life. I usually let yarn guide me
I'm finding myself in a bit of a creative slump, so I got back to my beloved slipped stitch for a meditative knitting project. I'm making an Everchanging Beanie to match the Everchanging Pullover.
This little trick worked because meanwhile I had a couple of new ideas

Thinking the idea may come in handy for the Southern members that don't normally see temperatures and white stuff, like us Northerners...

#ShowMeYourKnits: This is the first sweater I was really proud of. It's the famous #Carbeth by Kate Davies Designs.
It was 2019 and I found out that bold colors were my jam 😀

#ShowMeYourKnits another favourite of mine.
This yoke took me forever, maybe because I used 3 strands... IDK...
I would not make another one but I still love it!

@bsky.app could you please introduce the possibility to modify a post? It's so easy to make typos on a mobile device, especially in a language that is not your own. Hope you'll consider it!

#showmeyourknits is about sweaters! My absolute favorite thing to knit so I'll post a lot about this!
My favourite lately is also my own design: the #everchangingpullover.
inspiration from glass stones forged by the sea. It's an easy but not boring knit.

My second design is a maxi #scarf. My intention was to explain the math behind scarf dimensions. (tutorial in italian on YT)
The Maxi Cocoon Scarf is kind of a nice bypruduct.

Let's begin at the beginning: it all started with the #CheshireCatPullover 🆓
First attempt at designing & grading sadly there are only a few sizes.
But to grade it better I should probably rewrite the whole thing.🥴

Knitting helps me to relax. No extra work needed. But when I feel overwhelmed I like to combine breathing and knitting.
Have you ever tried?

Choose an easy knit and breathe your anxiety away!
