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

Lurking in my small but growing stash is some aran 'oiled yarn' called Troon Tweed from Texere Yarns in the north of England.

I finished the Charlotte's Web Shawl from Knits from a Painter's Palette. I didn't use Koigu as the pattern called for, but Noro Kureyon Sock yarn on size US-6 needles.

Perhaps I'm just dense today, but no matter what I try, I can't change my face pic.

Finally my last work shift is over and the boy and I are headed to San Francisco for a much needed rest for 17 days (eh vacation?

Ok guys. I'm looking for opinions here. How wide do you like your scarves to be?

Two pairs of recently finished socks, Twisted Stitch pattern from The Knitting Man(ual) and a pair of generic socks.

I am fine doing combined purl stitches for stockinette stitch but I am not quite sure what to do for ribbing. Can someone point me to the best online demo?

I will have a Video later on, and I will add the video to this posting, I am uploading the video to You tube.
