Day 12 in the Knit You Advent Calendar 2014: Good Old Friend

Nice sweaters for men - not always the easiest thing to find! Kind of the same thing as with knits for boys. Not always the easiest. But this is one I really like!

I just love these simple lines and easy going fit of this design. And it's worked from top down in one piece - so it's super easy! It's not yet the fingering weight sweater my husband has requested, but it's certainly a step toward that...
