The January/February 2010 Catalog for Knit Picks is out, so I can now share with you the project I did.
I knitted the Herringbone Men's Pullover Sweater.
The pattern is found in Men's Knits by Erika Knight, the yarn is City Tweed DK in Desert Sage (green) and Tabby (brown). I completely fell in love with this yarn! It is so soft and easy to work with, and the tweedy texture is fabulous. Buy and use this yarn. You won't regret it.
The pattern is well written and did not contain any errors. The sweater is knit in pieces and seamed together, with the neckband being knit on at the end.
And both of my men would wear this sweater if it were knitted in their colors - a big complement as one of them is super picky and won't wear most designs. It also knitted up fairly quickly, and was interesting enough to work on that I never got bored.

Wow, this sweater is gorgeous!
Thanks Jenny!
Is that sleeve finished? I really like this pattern, but I want to make set in sleeves, and I can't tell what these are. Thanks!
Catherine, I just saw your comment -- sorry it took so long! The sleeves are set in. It's a fun knit. Enjoy!
