Free Pattern Thursday: East Village in Rowan Creative Linen
Hi Everyone,
This week’s free pattern is a great project for the upcoming warmer weather and a great layering piece. East Village is knit in Rowan Creative Linen.
This men’s sweater has an allover slip stitch pattern that is classic. This sweater won’t go out of style! Rowan Creative Focus Linen is a crisp, but soft blend of cotton and linen. The largest size takes 7 hanks, so with the 20% discount, the sweater would be $72.52, which isn’t a bad price for a men’s sweater that won’t go out of season.

Do you knit for the men (or boys) in your life? What’s your favorite pattern for them?

I knit plenty for my husband and our kids (one son, one daughter). No sweaters for hubby, though. I’ve knit him two (once before we were married over a decade ago and one last winter), and it took me both times to learn that he is not a hand-knit sweater guy. He does appreciate hats and socks, though, so I can save the sweater knitting for me and our children, and everybody wins!
