Men Who Knit Promoting and inspiring the art of knitting amongst men.

Hi guys,

Did any of you catch the knitting program on Oxygen? The first one was March 5th @ 3pm. It does not seem to be airing any more. Lily Chin was the host & part of it was shot @ The Point in Greenwich Village. It was featuring Knit:1 magazine, Vogue............. Can it have folded already? 

These are most of the hats that I've been churning out in the past few weeks.  Most use the Reynolds Lopi.   The small ones are going to be gifts for my newest grand neice who is due next month.  The purple and green striped one is the "umbilical cord" hat from the Stitch N Bitch book, and the furry blue one was just my own "let's see what happens when I do this" design.  A couple will be just for me, and I will send a couple of them for the Dulaan project.  I think the green one in the back might be what Mel used for his Dulaan hat and I agree, it does look like ass on it's own.  I like the way the blue one on top almost looks like faded denim.

Out of all the combinations; what is your favourite stitch and why?

Just curious if there is anyone else that has done or who is doing round loom knitting?  I'm working on a 3 panel blanket and have been enjoying it.  I want to work on a sweater but don't understand regular patterns, let alone the patterns for the round loom.  I found a website that shows a lot of styles of knitting that you can do with the loom, such as cable, stocking, etc.  The greatest thing about round loom knitting is you get very fast results in a short period of time.  Great for beginners that may want to move on to needles and hooks!

Im usually up till 2 or 3 in the morning and at some point i have seen as many as 75 guests online.  but where are they at?  as i write this 10 people are online, where they at?

how do i put my project pics on the gallery.

Here are a couple of hats i made this weekend.  they are going too dulaan project.  I also hace 5 more on order for me to make.

Hi!  I'm a new(ish) knitter working on my first big project.  I've done a lot of toques, scarves, and mittens and am now starting my first sweater.  And by starting I mean I bought all the wool and everything and now I can't start.

 The pattern says to cast on 35 sts using the long-tail cast-on method (which I think is how I was taught anyway, so that's fine)  but then it says to work triple yarn-over cast-on for 40 more stitches.  And then later to drop certain yarn-overs. 

 I am confused!  How do I do a triple yarn-over and then how do I drop the yos?

Can anyone help me?
