bearacuda jockstrap
celebrate your bear pride with the bearcuda jockstrap! show your stripes and enjoy the feel of a hand knit jock pouch.
using the PapaBearKnits jock design of an icord edge, bearacuda uses german short rows to give ample room to store your berries. this jock is a knitted jock that looks like a jock!
the jock pouch is created using mini skeins of several colors. for the jock knit on model, Jack Dixon, i used Sun Valley Fibers MCN in Onyx, Cobbleston, Antler and Hi Sunshine. also incorporated Knit Picks Bare Stroll Fingering, Malabrigo Sock Mechita and a hand dyed fingering for the brown stripe.
strongly recommend utilizing the lifted increases for both the left and right side of the pouch. this increase technique gives a virtually invisible increase and the jock will have a professional look!
the pattern includes detailed pictures of what the process of building out a business travel jock will entail and amazing photos of the model Jack Dixon.
