    I have often knit a "man's" pattern for myself because, at least in the old days, patterns for men were always more tailored and crisp than the foo-foo patterns for women. Thankfully, things have changed and we can now knit any pattern for any person. Hallelujah! 🙂

    • @Lisa-vb3gn
      @Lisa-vb3gn Місяць тому

      That’s funny-I am tall, with broad shoulders and I would knit men’s patterns because they weren’t as fitted or unforgiving like women’s patterns-which were much more detailed and needed more detail adjustment to get the fitted sleeves shoulders, bust line and waist shaping to fit correctly. Of course I don’t understand what “foo-foo” means so maybe that’s what you are referring to.🌻

    Hi boys it's Thursday morning here in the UK I watched your post from my hospital bed on Monday evening after just going through surgery to have a facial abcess drained and 6 teeth removed, one of them being a wisdom tooth my old dentist overlooked which had receided into my gum and lay there slowly decaying for years until it finally gave way and the puss tracked and started to attack the rest of my teeth and I ended up as an emergency intake what fun, anyway thank you for cheering me up I was trying not to laugh or smile because I was sore and swollen but it was impossible with you two, you both cheered me up so much I thank you from the bottom of my heart stay well looking forward to your next post love Julie xxx

    Men's patterns may be easier to find in more vintage pattern collections. Most of mine are from the 1980s or earlier, but I do have some from the early 2000s. Naturally, the vintage patterns are vintage styled, but they also tend to have enough of a basic form that one can play around with different stitches and colors to update the style.

    • @NeedlesattheReadyPodcast
      @NeedlesattheReadyPodcast  Місяць тому +1

      Yes that’s a really great point!! We have a lot of vintage magazines. It might be fun to go through some patterns on the podcast ❤️❤️

    Yay! I'm happy to participate in the For the Boys MAL again. I've got several projects I want to make for my dad plus this is more motivation to find the yarn for Stephen West's surprise sock-along again.
    Granny square projects are always fun. Looking forward to seeing your finished Jethros!
    Sorry about your yarn woes, Ray. I get a lot of yarn when it's on clearance so I have a horror of running short on yarns that are no longer available. Good luck in your hunt for more! I'm sure someone will come through for you.

    Always enjoy your podcasts and love to see what you are working on. Everthing has gone wrong today printing out my patterns “for the boys” and Stephen wests new sock along. . Here in Chicago we are having a little contest between 4 shops, celebrating baseball and yarn. They have special yarn for each of the teams somehow, the tv went to a political podcast
    (Told you everthing was going wrong) so I finally devolved to my slightly younger years and put in linkin park good and loud. I’m going to make my son the Dustland cardigan by Stephen west. Love you guys

    I am thrilled to see you next MAL- let’s hear it for the boys…i just finished 2 sweaters for my nephews, as per their request!!❤
    I just saw a post for testers for a male pattern and it commented that the preference was for male knitters and if they did not receive enough males, they would ask female knitters knitting for the male(s) in their lives. This is awesome, hoping more designers take this approach. 👏😊
    Happy belated birthday Kevin!! 🎉

    I beat you to let's hear it for the boys! Tonight I went to my favorite restaurant and gifted my naughty boy something naughty. I made him a scarf of larksfoot stitch with instructions to wear the stitch upside down. If you know, you know. Quite a statement if I do say so myself. Great WIPS and FOs. You get the best stuff to share with us. When I watched Fiber Hustle I heard your name come up! I have my pattern bought for the granny cardigan. I haven't decided on yarn or color scheme. No more international snacking? I miss that. Glad to see you after your busy two weeks!

Love that you both are doing some crochet too! 🤗😺

    Love your podcast! Very excited about the Let's Hear it for the Boys KAL!! My husband watches me knit sweaters for myself and lots of others, and he recently declared that he would love a sweater as well, so I wasted no time finding a pattern and some yarn and got started! I chose the Gib II pattern by Andrea Mowry. Her husband (she calls him Spicy Pete) models it well and so far I love the pattern. I'm using Berocco Vintage yarn in a tweedy green, really lovely. Pattern with raglan cables and a bubbly texture is light and stylish. Let me know where I can post pictures of my progress for the KAL! Thanks!

    Happy belated birthday Kevin!!!!
    Yay! Its NATRLHIFTB time!!!
    I don't have any males or male identitifiers (or those that are knit worthy or they just want hats. ☹️.... the last one washed & dried a wool scarf. 😭 He didn't think it would "hurt", even though I attached a washing instruction label). Just making sure that male designers & dyers still qualify.
    Honestly, (sacrilege here), I don't care for the musselburgh... I HAVE made a few & the people I gifted them to didn't either. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Most preferred a sockhead.
    LOVE the ribbed cap! Especially the purple!! The last one looks like a Georges Seurat, pointillism. 😉
    I knit the loose ends of a cap in as I go, completely invisible, no it doesn't look "bulky".
    Such enablers!! No no no no, I don't need more bags!! 🤣😂🤣😂
    Have a wonderful fortnight!

    I've been knitting since I was 6 years old (I'm 62 so a long time!). I recall many more patterns for men back in the 80s and 90s. I still have many issues of Burda Anna from the 90s which always had loads of pattern for men and I frequently go back to those patterns now.

    Hi Ray Me again with another idea!!! LOL Sleeves are huge width ways maybe you can reduce the width by about 10 stitches or so and this may give you enough for both the sleeves........goodluck in whatever gets you finished xox

    A question and a comment😉 for rays Cardigan: is there a lot of purling on the wrong side? And also - another dip that goes amazing with pretzels is a spoonful of pesto and a spoonful of cream cheese mixed… I recommend the Kirkland pesto from Costco. My mom makes it and it changed my life 🤣

    • @NeedlesattheReadyPodcast
      @NeedlesattheReadyPodcast  Місяць тому +1

      Omg that sounds AMAZING!!! For the cardigan it’s a row of knits on the right side and alternating 1x1 ribbing on the wrong side.

    Hi Kevin and Ray. An update on my problem below. I wanted to let everyone know that I received my order today from Fox and Pine, with one exception, they gave me (1) more stitch holder than what I’ve purchased. So I reached out to them to let them know and to charge me for it.
    Hey Kevin and Ray. I watch the two of you all the time. In the last episode you mentioned Fox and Pine. I really liked the stitch stoppers you get from them so I ordered (4) sets of stitch stoppers and (2) sets of tags “made with love”. Unfortunately I never received the order. When I reached out to let them know, they just said to reach out to my postman because they say it was delivered. The only information I received was that it was accepted at the post office Kensington PE. I’m not sure what that means but the zip code and city I had it sent to was Oak Lawn, IL. 60453. It’s very disheartening to pay that kind of money and be told that the package was delivered with no proof.

    • @NeedlesattheReadyPodcast
      @NeedlesattheReadyPodcast  20 днів тому

      Hi Steph, If it does get wrinkled, you can block it again or just hit it with a steamer to get rid of the wrinkles, that is how we typically get them out.

He has only been at it for about a year and every one of his designs is exquisite. Love, love the Elbbrucken sweater. There is a symbol over the u that I don’t know how to add. No offence intended.
