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

This is my first lace project and I am having trouble with the pattern/chart. It appears to me that the chart does not match the written instructions.

The pattern is here:

This is my first toe up sock using my new US 1 1/2 9 inch circulars. The yarn is a hand dyed merino/bamboo/nylon fingering I got on ebay from Oldfield Creek Sock & Yarn, a fellow man who knits.

OK in this case smaller is better!

Another chemo cap. This one is made from Knitpicks Shine Worsted in Hollyberry. The picture does not do the yarn justice, it is a very rich dark red, just beautiful.

This is another hat I have made to donate to chemo patients. It is made from a hand painted merino yarn I purchased on Etsy.

This is a hat I made for Dennis, I think he was feeling abandoned with all the chemo caps I have been making. he thinks it is "real cool".

These are some chemo caps that I made this week to donate to our local hospital. They are a lot of fun to knit and go fast.

Here are a few pictures of one of our gardens as requested:

These are from spring pictures, it changes depending on the season.

I'm currently contemplating ordering some sock yarn from Blue Moon but am not sure if one skein will be enough for a pair of men's socks.

I am making these for Dennis's (HWMBO) 5 yr old grandaughter. I used the size 2 yr pattern except my gauge is 6 sts per inch instead of 8 so they should fit her.
