Knit for the Boys (4 patterns in poster format)
A paper poster of four menswear knitting designs by British designer, Erika Knight - all that you need to start a wardrobe of knit garments! Patterns include a chunky bi-colour jumper, a crew neck pullover with contrast colour tipping and integral elbow patches, an essential vee neck slipover vest and a beanie hat that uses up your leftover yarns.
The designs are knit using Erika Knight's maxi wool and vintage wool (both available in our shop) but will also work well with with other yarns.
The poster measures 59 cm X 41.5 cm (23" X 16") and features photographs of the designs on the front with pattern instructions on the back.
