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

I had the day off from work today and instead of doing the house work, I sat down and wrote out this pattern.
Hope it makes sense.

I have to admit that these videos bring a tear to my eye. I love a warm hug and got a couple tonight, 1,000+ miles from home.

Well, Another friend of mine (in beautiful Asheville NC) had a baby a few weeks ago and the moment I found out, I cast on to knit a new blanket, one I hadn't tried before.

I finally finished my first stranded knitting project. I started it somewhere in the middle of August, so it took a little over two and a half months to complete.

I just wanted to share my FO of the Honorable Ravenclaw House Scarf. I will be making another hat for this scarf . This is one of my Christmas Gifts to myself. Shhh!

I made this easy, comfortable hat in about 2 1/2 hours last night and this morning.

How is it that I cast on carefully....count every stitch about 2 or 3 times, knit the first row PERFECTLY(!!) and on the 2nd row....nothing matches up?!

Just finished the Irish Hiking Scarf. I made one previously in red for the Red Scarf Project, but decided to see what it looked like in more of an Aran color.

Just finished a swatch of a pattern from Heirloom Knitting by Sharon Miller. The yarn is cashmere/merino laceweight (so soft) from ColourMart UK, and the needle was 3mm.
