"For as long as women have been knitting, they?ve been knitting garments for men?only to have men hide their lovingly created pieces in drawers and closets. Men aren?t being intentionally cruel; they?re just not comfortable in knitwear made with bright colors, itchy yarn, or flashy designs. In this book, the author presents ten hilarious essays, each based on a rule that helps women knit for men successfully."--Amazon.
