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

Thank you, thank you, thank you to Wendy Bernard, for living up to her promise!

The opening section of her new book Custom Knits 2 clearly offering a welcome acknowledgement that ANY garment design can be adapted to a man, woman or child, AND OFFERING guidance how to make the changes marks her as an American Cultural Treasure!

This was a quick knit

I saw a post on here from a long time ago. I'm new to SF and am looking for a men's knitting group. Are there any men who knit in SF? Where do you guys meet? Surely I'm not alone!!

I am really thankful for the weekly knitting group I attend. The ladies have made me feel really welcomed and I've learned so much from them. I am the only male that attends and they have been both gracious and extremely helpful.

Does anyone know or have a pattern for a rectangular stole or wrap for a man (me)
Am only a fairly basic knitter, but just starting the Asherton Scarf

Well, for knitters. I worked on a new scarf and a totally new pattern I created while flying to Chicago.

Enjoy.

Here's the pattern...

UPDATE - I'm done for the day, but more updates will be happening through the week. Here are the known issues:
- Image Galleries are currently disabled, though can you still attach images to your posts.
- Private Messages are in the database, but not being displayed. I'm working on it!
- Some areas of look/feel are still in flux, but most should be subtle.

Please reply to this thread if you notice anything else that's broken and I'll take a look. Thanks for your patience and please let me know if I can be of any help!

since i started knitting about 2 years ago i have knitted dozens of hats, scarves, potholders - but i have yet to do the one project i really want to - a sweater.
