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

I finished this sweater in May but I'm just getting around to taking photos of it. Here's what I wrote on my website about the process:

This is the end product of my third pair of socks. I used two circulars and made them both at the same time. It was fun and I learned a lot.

I just completed my first pair of socks!. I have learned 2 things from this project. 1) I do not have a sock fetish. Nope, not me. Socks do absolutely nothing for me.

I hope a no too hot summer...
have a nice summer...

Today I saw a post on LiveJournal announcing National Commando Day.

From the site...

Dear all,

Hello guys. I have a stash of a worsted weight “Hempwol : hemp for knitting”. Does anyone have any experience with this yarn, or with hemp in general?

Any one else doing the Tour De Fleece??

I haven't been around much lately and I'm sorry about that but summer keeps me outside in the garden or swimming or just hanging out with the fireflies - and, well, getting on my lap top is pretty muc

I'm diligently hacking away at the Aran. It crossed my mind for a brief instant to simply bag the whole project because I'd made a mistake that required frogging.
