Well, here is a reveal of my first sweater knit for a man. My youngest son actually wears sweaters, so I had a chance to knit a basic, worsted-weight sweater for him. The yarn is Hobby Lobby's I Love This Yarn, which is currently my favorite acrylic. It's a bit lighter than Red Heart, but still substantial--and very soft.
The pattern is free from Lion Brand.
I have now cast on a second sweater for Kaleb. This one is a pattern from Vampire Knits. Look for an update soon.
