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

I try to do a pair of socks every month and I actually made these three pairs in one month. They are for my two nieces and my nephew. I used my favourite sock yarn - Kroy, and 2.25mm needles.

Every boy who lives out in the woods, or out on a farm, needs the loyal love and companionship of a puppy.

I've got small yarn balls,
inherited ugly yarn,
an acryllic hell.

I simply can't bring myself to throw away this UGLY stuff.

I've got to knit it all.

What was supposed to be a slow Friday (Workshop 9:30-1pm, then visit to a yarn shop) started out with an early visit to the dentist. Two hours and 2 fillings later, I still had errands to run.

Just finished a little tablecloth for my breakfast table. I used Marianne Kinzel's "EnglishCrystal". No. 6 cotton and 3.25 needles.

I've been working on these teddy bears, selling them on Etsy to be able to purchase the supplies necessary for living out here. FOOD.
