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

I'm now a complete yarn snob. I was on a cruise last week in Alaska and succumbed to the allure of two 1 oz. balls of qiviut...at $93 per ball!!!

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

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

Hello Again Everyone,

I can't get past 3 rows. My stitches become tight as I approach the middle of my second or third rows and the rows start wrapping around the working needle like a stake around a branch.

I've knitted hats, mittens and so on, and I want to knit a sweater. The heat in my office is laughable at best (came in one morning and it was under 50'F).

so I've only been at this for a week or so, but I seem to be doing pretty okay.

Okay Everyone, this is a LONG POST.

I completed my first non hat scarf garment a couple of weeks ago, and wanted to share it with you.

can anyone recommend a source for green (i.e. made in the US, minimally processed, organically grown, still smells like the hippy that spun it by hand) hemp yarn???
