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

Finished that cat blanket I've been working on. It was a great learning experience.

Here's the deal. Our LYS had a sale this week and in their "$1 patterns" pile, they had three copies of the "Vogue Knitting K.1 men's issue" from Fall/Winter 2005.

So, I finished the buttonhole row on the button band of my cardigan and I looked at the pattern to see what was next and noticed it says “knit 3 more rows then cast off for ribbing”.

How long does blocking last? Does lace need to be reblocked occasionally?

I started a new cardigan this morning called Kumo.

It was in the Summer of '05 issue of knitty...here is a little link for you guys!
