Boys' Knits (ages 4 - 14)

Says Frankel: "All of the patterns in this book are seamless designs that are worked from the bottom up towards the collar. The sleeves are either joined with the body at the underarms – and then yoke and sleeve caps are finished together – or the sleeve stitches are picked up at the armhole and worked down. There are a number of different yoke constructions included, from raglans and circular yokes to drop shoulders and fitted sleeve caps."

With 16 sweater patterns and the cutest photography you have ever seen, Katya Frankel’s Boys’ Knits would be a fabulous present for all the knitting parents and grandparents in your life. (And fear not, she’s already at work on a sequel filled with accessory patterns!).

The introduction also contains ample guidance on how to measure for sizing, how to adapt the length of the sleeves and body, how to sew in zippers, and lots more helpful technique information.
