Heritage: a collection of 8 classic knits for men

Autumn is just around the corner, literally! The first day of Fall is tomorrow, September 23, and which instantly puts me into full “sweater weather” mode.

We recently released our first men’s collection, Heritage, which is filled with 8 handsome knitting patterns that range from sweaters to cardigans, vests and a few accessories. Whether you’re a man that knits, or you just want to knit a timeless classic for the man in your life, Heritage is your one-stop inspiration this season.

We’ve styled the each of the 8 knits found in Heritage, go ahead and take a peek!
