It’s so easy to forget about the men in our lives when it comes to stitching, but they often deserve handknits as much as everyone else. With the brand new indie magazine, Rib, geared specifically towards guys, we can finally help our men fill their closets with woolens.

Pick up a skein or two of Brooklyn Tweed Shelter and whip up a pair of mitts that will definitely become his go-to winter accessory.
