This week I felt a little bit bad for the guys who knit and whom we knit for. As I was looking for patterns it was so much harder to find great fashionable designs! Ladies, we really are spoiled with so many lovely pattern options. However I believe that if I wasn’t looking specifically for sweaters to knit and wear in the summer it would’ve been much easier. Lets just say I can’t wait to put together a collection of mens patterns for the Fall/Winter season!
Since generally men don’t wear short sleeve sweaters, sweater dresses or the lacey sweaters that the ladies like to wear in the summer the term “summer” is used loosely here. If you’re sailing, traveling through Europe, building campfires or hiking through the woods there is a sweater here for you!
One bonus for almost every sweater on this list is that it will be wearable throughout the year! So grab your needles and get started!
