One for the Guys

January 3, 2014

Dad, Grandpa, brothers, a significant other–there is always a great guy in your life in need of knits. (Or maybe that great guy is you.) Luckily, the Winter issue of Knit Simple, has several gems made for men. Here at Blue Sky Alpacas, we’re partial to these fingerless gloves made up in our super soft Sport Weight yarn. They’re a real classic, simple and practical with no fussy details, just a deep cuff near the digits. There are 31 Blue Sky Alpaca Sport Weight colors to choose from (not to mention 18 of the easily substituted Melange) which means you can dress Dad in rugged Denim #522, set Grandpa up with a nice neutral like Dark Gray #509, and indulge your crazy brother with something a little edgier like Tangerine #521. Knit on.
