Tim's Sweater

Started this for Tim's Christmas present years ago.  He graduated from Law school this year so I can give it to him as a graduation present.  After all, lawyers dress up and wear sweater vests, right? Well at least my brother does.  While I had fun wearing what I wanted in college, my brother always liked to dress nice and presentable.  He wore button down shirts to class to his undergrad classes. Most kids I went to school with wore pajamas!  For now I just have a picture of the sweater laid out below.  I'll see if he sends me a picture of him in it to share (you know how brothers are!).




For any of you wanting to make one for your own brother here is the pattern below.  It includes mens and boys sizes!

Yellow Vintage Sweater

The buttons are all sewn on!  Find the pattern for this sweater below.  I made a few changes by omitting the stitch pattern and collar. 




Hope you enjoy this pattern!

Bernat Style No. 690-66


Finally a picture I feel justifies one of my favorite sweaters. I knit this sweater last year and wear it frequently. Last night I wore this outfit to Reverend Horton Heat at the Metro. Great show!

Here is the picture from the original pattern. One down side of using black is that you can't see the lace detail at the top. It took me about 2 months to finish this sweater although it was not difficult. I've included the pattern below for any of you fellow knitters.
