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

I am knitting my first pair of socks. I am taking a class at my favorite LYS, LovelYarns in Baltimore, MD. I am overwhelmed but trudging on. It is a toe down pattern.

I have not been knitting much lately. My mom, who has suffered from emphysema for several years, is reaching the end of her life.

This has been a tough winter here in Baltimore. I heard on the radio this is the worst winter since . . . EVER! We beat the record snows of 1898 or 9.

We had about 24 inches of snow here in Baltimore. Since we have to stay inside, I have had the opportunity to work on several projects . . . I am loving it!

Thanks for all the suggests and ideas to overcome low motivation . . . I went back to the project after a few days, and I saw my mistake. It was, fortunately, easy to fix.

I am having a hard time getting motivated this weekend. I want to work on a scarf for a good friend, but I can't seem to get cracking.

I am very excited. I finished a scarf this weekend for a dear friend; I hope she likes it. I have to say, it was an easy knit. I used size 50 needles. It took about 3 hours total.
