as a more traditional knitter and designer, i enjoy working on projects with uniformity, classic lines, and simple cable work that lend the impression of a more complex effort. alignment is a true definition of this philosophy.

based on the tried and true jock design of the previous patterns: twisted mister, woodsman,
business travel, the pride series, and the latest incarnation repetition, alignment is a perfect quick knit or beginner project for jockstrap knitting enthusiasts. the model samples were created with superwash merino/nylon blends, showcasing stitch definition and easy care!

alignment is a surprisingly easy, fun to complete, jockstrap and once complete, you’ll be amazed at how impressive the jockstrap looks and feels!

strongly recommend using the “lifted” increase method as it lends a very professional look to the overall garment. also, the icord edging is perfect manner to slide elastic through, which keeps your ruck sack nice and contained.
