    Fair Isle pullover

    My wife knit me a fair isle pullover (sweater vest) recently. I just got the chance to try it out today with the kilt.




    And with some decidedly non-Scottish head gear!

    The all-time greatest comeback.

    If she knitted this with the brand of yarn for whom she is a designer, I think she should send them pictures to use in their advertising, and let the accolades start cascading in.

    I was just pondering a fair isle knit tie hanging in my closet and wondered how it would look with a kilt if the colors were a little different....

    With all the color changes... I was thinking the same thing, Alan. Matt, the sweater is gorgeous! Well done!
