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

So I set out to design a sweater for my nephew but am now looking at it and am thinking it may look great as a sweater vest.

I need an opinion!

What do you guys think?

Thanks!

Jeff

Congratulations, John Niegowski of Flint, MI - YOU are the winner of the polished Aluminum yarn bowl!

This is from a 1942 kintting booklet that my sister gave me for Christmas and I can't figure out the pattern.
It's called "Pointed Stripe" and the directions go like this:

This was a very nice and quiet CHristmas lots of fiber fun and non fiber.

It's hard to believe I have been on this site for almost 2 years and I have not posted until today. This is the hoodie that I'm knitting for my partner Greg. It is the Iain.

Well, I finally got most of my yarns sorted and stashed into a couple of cabinets. Now all I have to do is wait for space to show up so I can unload the boxes of extras.

My next door neighbor bought me a spinning wheel. It's a Dutch wheel called Edammertje, one I've never heard of.

Thanks to whomever it was on this group that asked the question about a "basket" stitch and also to whomever posted the pattern.

I started this sweater a few weeks before Thanksgiving and completed it the day before Christmas.

Attached is a picture of all the Christmas stockings I made for the family this year. I filled them with little ornaments I bought in Guatemala. The stockings were a big hit!
