And, What Have I Been Working On, You Ask?

Well, let me show you.

This, my friends, is another men's fashion design. This is the size small, or finished size of 44". I am going to start working on the one to fit Christian next. Then, I'll need to do all calculations for the sizes in between and we'll have another pattern! Woo hoo!

Please let me know what you think.

Edit: I forgot to mention that it's regular crochet. Swapna, you know me too well! Yes, I love Tunisian crochet, but I've been experimenting with regular crochet lately.

I like this a lot. It looks just right and masculine. Is it all tunisian? The border looks like regular crochet. Very nice.

Absolutely wonderful. How difficult would it be to add sleeves to make this a sweater? Are you willing to sell the pattern? Most of the sweater patterns for men seem to be pullovers and that is just what my DH Doesn't want. Thanks :)
