Father's Day Gift Ideas for Him - Father's Day is coming around quickly again. In the UK it's on Sunday 18th June and it's a chance to say a big thank you to the father figure in your life. Whether yours is a Pa, Papa, Father, Dad, Daddy or Grandad, we have a range of patterns and project kits for unisex and menswear including some gorgeous jumpers and sweaters for them to enjoy wearing and treasure.
The Crossing Cable Sweater Project Kit with a pattern by Rita Taylor and some of our Pure Romney Guernsey is a lovely gift idea whether your beloved Dad is a keen knitter himself or prefers to wear something lovingly made by hand especially for him. This unisex saddle shoulder sweater is knitted bottom up in flat pieces and comes in Sizes 1 to 11 options (chest size 30.5 inch to 54.75 inch).
The Men's Half Fisherman’s Rib Pullover Project Kit, also designed by Rita Taylor, contains our beautiful Shetland Coffee range DK yarn and a pattern to recreate a comfortable and easy-to-wear item for casual or work activities.
Another great suggestion is the Guernsey-style Tunic – Project Kit, with a pattern and Gotland DK for the unisex sweater, which is worked in two main pieces, with the shoulders seamed together and the sleeves picked up and worked down to the desired length. Options for intermediate knitters are given and the neckline is a slash style but a more traditional edging can be added if desired, possibly preferable for the man’s version.
Our Unisex Chunky Boot Sock Project Kit includes a pattern and some of our Blacker Yarns Devon Aran wool which is hardwearing and perfect for knitting socks. Please visit our website to see our full range.
For Dads who love to knit or crochet we also have our gift voucher range so that they can pick their own project kit with some of our Pure British wool yarns in a wide selection of seasonal shades.
