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

Well, it's been a little while since I've posted anything on here, things always seem to get busy around February I guess. So this is my first commissioned project: a nice hooded scarf.

It’s my first Man-Made Rug. It’s made of all-jute gardening twine from India. Each ball of 208 ft. cost me $1.49 at my local hardware store so it was a very inexpensive project.

Decision making is not my forte'. I am a doer and procrastinator. Yet somehow I managed to get through spinning this cobweb lace a bit ago. Another first for me is swatching.

Stitches West had a new vendor selling an amazing knitting pattern software called "Intwined Studio".

...this is their info about it...

It has been a time since I have knitted my first project. I think it turned out very well considering a few things. The entire project was knit from the back stitch.

The Kentucky Sheep and Fiber Festival will be held in conjunction with the Bluegrass Classic Stockdog Trials.
