I was looking at the current issue of a magazine produced by Vogue called Knit 1.In it, there is a poster offered for sale by Lion Brand of a man lounging, looking like he is taking a break from knitting. I ordered one tonight. I have absolutely no financial gain by posting this, but it's work checking it out, as it's a first,as far as I can tell.
I believe the rules in the KR forums is to refrain from posting any commercial websites--so just go into a search engine like Google and enter the words: "Lion Brand poster man knitting". Innocent fun,what can I say?!

What on earth is he knitting? It looks like Morticia's scarf!
Was that a scarf Morticia knitted (in the old black and white TV series with Carolyn Jones?) I seem to remember it was for the octopus?

Ladies, Ladies, Ladies!
Isn't this the behavior many decry in those of us with "y" chormosomes chromosomes?
Don't worry - I'll get me 'at.

Take care!

Aahhh what greats depths to shallowness, an almost Zen thought. Differences vary as greatly, maybe more so, within a gender as across it. :o)

So true- shallowness can have incredible depth and breadth - on of the incongrous dichotomies of life.

Ahem....A guy who knows the ins and outs of knitting with smaller needles, who can make the tiniest stitches...patiently, oh so carefully and yet creatively....will get much more respect from me women than a guy with big, clumsy ol' sticks.
Love a guy who knits lace!
(dirty minds....tsk tsk)

I'll pass on the guy...not at all my type. I like 'em chubby and with a receding hairline.

True, the guy in the pic is just holding his big needles. God knows if he can actually use them or not!

Hi,
All I can say is "OOOh isn't he lovely".
Big sticks and weird knitting and all.
Knit in peace and harmony.

Works for me.

MMArio and MIke -- there's the difference - we'd beat men to a bloody pulp for this discussion but you resort to philosophy. Taking the high road is so attractive.
