I keep forgetting to post about the hexipuffs that I have finished knitting so far. I have had some of them done for a week or so but I haven't gotten around to photographing and writing about it. I'm really thrilled with how little yarn these are using - I've been able to get exactly…
About 5% of the way done with The Beekeeper's Quilt
I have 100 "hexipuffs" now complete and I am over a quarter of the way done with my Beekeepers Quilt! Getting to 100 took longer than expected for two reasons... Firstly, I learned that knitting hexipuffs every available minute caused me major shoulder pain and stiffness. I don't know if it was the tiny needles or what, but it got to the point where I could no longer lift my arms without shooting pain in my back, shoulders and arms. It was a hard decision.. choosing between hexipuffs and range of motion... but in the end, pain management won out and I had to set aside my wonderful little knitted puffs for a time. Secondly. I have been SO busy. Between releasing Botanical Knits for pre-order and two trade shows in February, I have had little time for personal knitting. I have also started up design work again which I am really excited about. I plan on continuing on with my Beekeepers Quilt slowly but surely. A little bit here and there. I am hoping to have it complete before next winter. These "hexipuffs" will make a great, portable little project through the summer months.

Beekeeper's Quilt: 10 Hexipuffs.
As you might recall, I made my first hexipuff a few days ago. Now, much as I love to make them, and cute as they are, there's one thing that bugs me: Tiny Owl says it's quick and easy to sew them all up - it only took her 2 days. 2 days != quick…

Knitting Hexipuffs Quilt Blanket I know that I'm really late to the whole Hexipuff party, considering that there are over 9,000 people working on a Beekeeper quilt on Ravelry, but this is a project that I have had queued forever and I finally took the plunge and started it. So today I'm going to share some …
