Eons ago I worked with Alan, one of the most wonderful guys in the world. Imagine my surprise, then, when I got an e-mail from his partner, John, who is a KNITTER. And he KNITS AMAZING THINGS for ALAN!!! With John’s permission, I am sharing his latest creations:
There’s Alan! He’s wearing the Oregon Vest, knit with Lopi Icelandic Wool.
And some socks:
No, John’s not color blind. He very cleverly made two different socks so that he would be more motivated to knit two pairs rather than one!

They aren’t the John and Alan who got married recently up north (Seattle — oh, that would make sense….)? They sent me a LOVELY note and a pic of their marriage certificate set on a piece of knitting — I wonder if it was this piece? John? Alan? That you?
(Hey, I ran the Lake today and only walked about 4 of of 40ish minutes…. Wow!)
Awww thats A VEST PATTERN i’ve been looking for..for months! I hope someone here can hint on where I can find such similar pattern. I desperatly want to make one for my father

*shuffling off to open Safari instead….* 😉
Man knitters….cool
Man Knitters ROCK! I wish my man would just try it, I think he’d like it.
I like the idea of knitting two completely differently socks as motivation to complete a pair.
