taking twisted mister down the road. who doesn’t love a little trip? well, business travel is not nearly as fun as a beach holiday! so, in an effort to recharge those tired road warriors, knit him his own “business travel” jockstrap!

using the PapaBearKnits jock design of an icord edge, business travel uses german short rows to give ample room to store your belongings. this jock is a knitted jock that looks like a jock!

the teal jock on Adam is sun valley fibers MCN fingering in the colorway “medieval” and the gray jock on Dan is house of a la mode house fingering in the colorway “lumbersexual”.

strongly recommend utilizing the lifted increases for both the left and right side of the pouch. this increase technique gives a virtually invisible increase and the jock will have a professional look!

the pattern includes detailed pictures of what the process of building out a business travel jock will entail and amazing photos of the models: Adam Keith and Dan Darlington.
