@freakygeaktwo The book is specifically intended for women's sweaters, but the principles can be applied to a sweater for a man or boy. Men's sweaters are actually easier, because they are often made with a drop shoulder, which means no armhole shaping and a sleeve with a straight top that can be knit separately or worked top down from the shoulder. There is a great tutorial on knitty dot com. Go to the site and search on "Ravellings on the knitted sleeve" it is in Part I.
I really love your explanations. makes knitting enjoyable
That's so good to hear! That was one of my motivators for making the videos--so knitting would be satisfying (as in completing a successful project!)
thank you so much for the quick reply and I like the sound of easyer work I'll check out the vid have a good week.
