Every week I present a new book, that is in my opinion crap that somebody has published... The event runs under the hastags 🙈 #RandomThingsTuesday #CrapGotPublished
The next book of this series is the one with the lovely title:
"The Manly Art of Knitting" 😱
A man needs to know many things. How to make fire, how to fight a bear, how to shoot, how to build a rocket... and of course on the top of that list, there is something more...
The greatest fabric artform on mother earth, the noble art of knitting. 😂
Hey there cowboy. You’ve got the ranching part down, sheep are your game. Herding sheep, shearing sheep, and selling that fine a grade wool. The wool goes to the stores, people buy the wool, people knit with the wool, and when the winter rolls around, you’re buying your own wool back!?
No, no, no, of course not! A real man with a beard and a Marlboro in the corner of his mouth knits himself!
With this book, you can cut out the middle man. Start with a scarf. Move up to gloves. Next the saddle. These are life skills that will last forever 😉
Soon you’ll be the fastest needle twizzler in the west, and the world will look to you in awe.
The book is a cult classic, "The Manly Art of Knitting" was originally published in 1972, but has been out of print for decades.
Fougner initially published this book in the hope that it would encourage men to take up knitting, or that those who did would openly embrace it. In this amusing yet practical guide to knitting, Dave Fougner provides a step-by-step guide for beginners as well as those taking up the needles again.
Containing all of the original black and white illustrations and photographs, chapters include: basics, pattern stitches, projects and problems.
So if your fingers are already nervously twitching, here is the amazon link 😉
See you next week with my presentation of a shocking new crap book! 👍
