It's hard to knit for other people. You spend so much time knitting something that you fall deeper in love with (and more frustrated with) every stitch. It's a Catch-22, however, because giving something handmade to someone else is such a great feeling. I knew I wanted to expand my horizons to contemporary knitted wear that any gender could enjoy. So I knitted up a few uni-sex pieces and had my lovely model here demonstrate what good yarn and a good pattern can produce. From top to bottom we have the Bandana Cowl knit in a fiery, tomato red with my favorite merino yarn from Manos Del Uruguay, the Boy Beanie knit with Vintage Berocco in an electric blue (super washable acrylic-wool blend), and the Herringbone Cowl made extra slouchy with a green-grey variegated merino from, again, Manos Del Uruguay.
