This was my husband's Valentine's Day gift. He really likes it and hopefully will get lots of warmth from it. The yarn is Paton's Classic Merino. More details and pics on my blog (http://fmlcrochet.blogspot.com/2008/02/mens-crochet-cardigan.html).

Same here! That's one of the nicest men's crocheted sweaters I've seen. Most of the really nice-looking ones are knitted.

Would love the opportunity to purchase your pattern!

Thanks everyone! I'm glad it is liked. It was a pain to plan but easy to execute. How many different swatches and stitch patterns did I go through???

As far as a pattern, I'm not planning to do a full pattern for it. It takes so long to get all the sizes right. I think I'm going to post my design notes and guidelines on my blog so anyone interested can attempt it. :hook

Nice, nice...I love it. I'm always looking for men's sweater patterns for my husband. He's my personal Ken doll. I've averaged making him a sweater a year over the 10 years we've been together.

Didn't realize my cardigan made a reappearance. :) It's my own design but I didn't write out a pattern (too much work). He still wears it everyday.

Oh, that's great! It's one of the very few sweaters men's crocheted sweaters that I've ever seen that doesn't look femnine. I love it!
