As this year comes to a close, I find myself reflecting on the countless moments of love and support that have carried me through. To everyone who has believed in me, cheered for my little business, and embraced the heart I pour into every single stitch—thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Your encouragement has been my greatest source of strength, and your love has been woven into every beanie I’ve knit. Because of you, I get to live my dream of creating pieces that bring warmth, joy, and connection.

Here’s to you, the ones who make all of this possible. Your kindness and support mean more than words can ever express. I’m endlessly grateful for this journey and for having you by my side.

Cheers to another year of love, creativity, and cozy stitches. Thank you for being part of it all!

Christmas Eve 2025: Featuring Pantone’s Color of the Year, Mocha Mousse. For this project, I used an entire ball of Merino 401 in the shade Sandcastle. I didn’t follow a pattern, opting instead for a simple design to let the yarn’s stunning color shine.

It was my first time working with Berroco’s Merino yarn, and it was an absolute delight! The yarn felt wonderfully substantial, offering a thickness and durability that promised strength and lasting quality. Its sturdy texture was perfectly balanced by a soft, comfortable feel, making it an absolute joy to work with. I couldn’t put it down and completed the project with pure joy. The 2x2 ribbing enhances the color’s beauty so perfectly—it’s almost good enough to eat!

I’m in my 30s. Three decades of decisions, influenced by emotions and what has come into my life. Of them all, the hardest is the decision to remain consistent. Despite the tension of one choice over another—similar to a stitch—the consistency must remain the same. Each stitch must be even, no matter what the day brings. When I pick up my needles, I must be consistent. And in life, I strive for the same.

This sweater is finished now, but I wanted to take a moment to reflect on the process.

As a process knitter, I treasure the steps before the first stitch is cast on. It starts with reading the pattern—understanding the blueprint for what lies ahead. What does it take to create this garment or accessory? Then, the choices begin: What kind of yarn feels right? Which needles will bring this vision to life?

And then comes the gauge swatch—a little like a first date. You pair your chosen yarn and needles to see if the fabric feels just right. It’s a small, deliberate act, but it sets the tone for the entire project.

Every decision, from yarn to gauge, builds toward something meaningful—a sweater to wear, a gift to cherish. Stitches become permanent. They reflect your effort, choices, and presence in the moment.

So, I ask: How do you want to show up today? What small decisions will help you craft the tomorrow you desire?

I’m working on my second pair of fingerless mitts, and I’m loving every stitch! I hit a snag about 10 rows back, but I took the time to fix it by tinking (knit backward, one stitch at a time). Mistakes happen—in knitting and in life—but they don’t have to define the outcome.

In life, I try to own up to my mistakes. In my knitting, I rework them. Wool is so forgiving, and it reminds me to offer myself that same grace. Each stitch is a chance to move forward, and when life feels messy, I find comfort in the rhythm of creating—one row at a time.

Hey there, I’m Delilah Marie McKay (cue song 😊), a mama of two from Orlando, FL, and the hands behind Knit Next to You. Knitting, for me, is more than just creating something beautiful—it’s a way of working through life. Each stitch is like a heartbeat, steady and grounding, giving me space to process the joys and sorrows of life.

As a process knitter, I’m not just focused on the finished piece; I’m captivated by the journey of creating. The textures, the colors, and the rhythm of the needles—it all feels like a form of therapy, a way to untangle the knots of the heart and turn them into something meaningful. Some days, knitting is my quiet retreat, and other days, it’s how I pour my soul into a piece of art that tells its own story.

Through my designs and handmade knits, I hope to share this love with others—to remind them that every thread of their story is worth weaving into something beautiful.

There are two types of knitters. Those who…

1. Knit for a finished object also known as FOs.
2. Knit for the process.

I am both ✨… actually that makes three types of knitters 😁

Which are you?

It’s been some of the hardest days recently. Transitions can be heavy, stretching us in ways we never expected. But even in the middle of the challenges, there’s a quiet hope—a promise of what’s to come.

I’ve found comfort in the small things, like the rhythm of my needles and the textures of my knits. One piece, in particular, has been my favorite source of solace: the SugarPlum. Its softness, warmth, and familiarity remind me that there’s beauty even in the messy in-between moments.

What brings you comfort when things feel hard?

The Always Willing Beanie

Inspired by a dear friend the mantra Always Willing, this beanie is more than just a cozy winter essential—it’s a reminder to remain interruptible and present. To be there for others, to honor your own needs, and to walk in service to your purpose.

The design celebrates balance: textured stitches for warmth and comfort, and a timeless look that fits into any moment—whether you’re lending a hand, finding quiet time for yourself, or stepping out into the world with intention.

Crafted with care, the Always Willing Beanie symbolizes what it means to stay open and ready—to serve others, to serve God, and to serve yourself. Wear it as a daily encouragement to show up for what matters most.

Let the Always Willing Beanie be more than an accessory. Let it be a statement of grace, love, and purpose, stitch by stitch.

Knitting is more than a collection of stitches, a little bit of me, for you, carefully.

When .knits had test knit call for the I stopped all my other WIPS to knit this beautiful piece. You’ll recall the I knitted recently and I just loved it! I knitted this in a few hours and loved how it all came together even with the two colors I chose to use some stash KFO and Berroco yarn. 👌
