In this great new collection of handknit designs, Rowan's top men's knitwear designer Martin Storey and Royal College knitwear tutor Wendy Baker have teamed up to present designs for sweaters, jackets, slipovers, waistcoats, hats, scarves and gloves that men will really love! All have the hallmarks of heirloom knits - strong classic shapes, superbly tailored detailing, great but subtle toning and very masculine colourways - grey, navy, brown, olive, petrol blue, sage green - all in Rowan's superb natural wool and cotton yarns. With some wonderful variations on original themes, Wendy and Martin have found inspiration in retro favourites too, such as Fairisle and Argyll patterns, as well as traditional designs such as Guernseys and Arans and recreated them in soft, contemporary colour combinations, many of them simplified to make them easier to knit.
