all i’m saying is: clint wore one.
(thanks denise, for pointing that out . . .)
this generous rectangualr shawl or scarf (directions for both included) knits up quickly into a lightweight, warm garment meant to be wrapped several times, replacing the need for a bulky jacket—perfect for driving or a quick run to the mailbox. or to just . . . horse around.

How beautiful! The fiber and stitch pattern are perfect together. I love the way it drapes. It looks great on David!
Wonderful…I can really see and feel the texture of the stitch. Well done Anne; another success.
Wow…

the drape really is fantastic.
Beautiful.
Yeah David, you look great in that!! Thanks for modeling it…better watch out now, the fashion mags are not only gonna grab Anne up for pattern designing but you for modeling the,,, OMG, I have a GREAT idea, we can start a design line, lemme get a sample of your handwriting first so I can sell it on EBAY when you both are rich and famous 🙂 Ok peeps, there it is, not only is Anne the BEST pattern making gal in town, BUT her patterns are wearable, David is living proof and they look FABU!!! Ya know what Mason said, well, let’s just say he is giving Mr. David 2 thumbs up and saying, “Well, Miss Anne DID pick the colors out ya know;)
very handsome! the shawl is gorgeous too…
whoooo hoooo ! man lace! and he wears it well 🙂
Congrats for the new lace! Beautiful as always.
Very handsome! Oh, and the scarf is gorgeous, too! 🙂
Somehow, it looks even more impressive on. On first seeing the top picture I said “Oh wow” out loud, totaly spontaneous.
Don’t you wish you could somehow be there when someone sees your work for the first time?
It’s wonderful. And it does knit up fast. But not fast enough for Dale. He keeps asking me when it will be ready!
Do you sleep?? Another winner off the needles. I love the simple geometry of this one.
Yay a modeled shot! Looks very manly, and pretty much perfect. Good work!
It looks great! I’m adding it to my list!!
Love that Man Lace. David wears it well. Very handsome (the man and the piece). Please tell him that I adore his locks too!
Looks great and David is not too hard on the eyes either. I wonder if my husband would wear one.
Men need lace!!! The yarn and color are wonderful!!
Gorgeous, or should I say handsome! It is am amazing piece, now my guy just wants to know if I make him one can he get the locks too!
Hi, I just bought a copy of the pattern and I was wondering what size is shown in the picture. I want to make one for my man, LOL. Thanks!
Just amazing, Anne! The modelled shots clinched it…
Perfect!
Perfect, and I love the model’s stance.
Anne, it is fantastic! I just love it.
And David’s hair! Gorgeous! I’ve tried to talk mine into growing his hair just like that, but he’s of the “shave it totally bald” school. Which looks good too, of course.
The ManShawl looks wonderful draped around David’s shoulders. Great photos, love the dreadlocks!
Yay, pictures of David! That hair. Man. He wears the shawl well, with an air of mystery and sophistication. 🙂
You have an awesome serape and an awesome model. Great design, great drape, and please tell David I am in total envy of his dreads. If someone could give me the instructions for hair like that…!
That scarf looks really fabulous on that gentleman.
Is that David?! You’ve been holding out on us… he is HOT! 😉
I really do think the scarf/shawl/comfy wrap is sufficiently manly, too. My husband would wear that, no doubt about it.
It is wonderful!!
I would like to buy this pattern but am confused (so what else is new?). Is there a link I am not finding? What do I do? Thanks, Anne.
Since I’m technologically challenged and can never get direct paypal payments through, would you send me an invoice so I can order this gorgeous pattern (but I’m not knitting it for my husband, I’m making it for me!) Thanks.
Hello! Good Site! Thanks you! cnaktekftztyy
