From Greetings From Knit Cafe: “Like my grandmother’s classic chocolate cake, some recipes stand the test of time and need little, if any, fussing. The same philosophy holds true for this basic, straight, hip-length crewneck sweater, which most of the men who visit Knit Cafe prefer to busier styles. The neck is a little wider than you might expect; that’s to show off the all-important T-shirt underneath. The yarn is the softest chunky baby alpaca I could find. The model is Todd, who actually prefers crocheting to knitting. he and his daughter Shelby bring a lot of joy to us at Knit Cafe.”
