Too soon for fair isle?

[EastFortySixth]

It doesn’t matter as I’m wearing it to work today anyway and I loves it (it’s on the bright side).
Just wondering if I’m making a huge fashion blunder 😁

And I know the first is argylle not fair isle!

Edinburgh woolen mill (yes I know!!!) have a fabulous yellow fair isle in at the moment at £32

Unless your jumper has an actual Christmas tree on it, wear whenever you want.
In fact, even if it does...

This one!

I bought a beautiful hand knit fair isle cardigan last year. I think I mentioned it a thread last year as it was a Vinted bargain. It was from one of the Scottish islands but not Fair Isle.

Of course it's fine to wear, OP. I think you could probably wear them all year round anyway (unless Christmas trees, as has been said) especially the pastel colours.

Does anyone have the Celtic and Co one?

just wondered about sizing as I think I am between small and medium sand the reviews says it comes up big

Actually that is the look I was going for (as opposed to Nurse Gladys).

I have found my people! I love a bit of fairisle and recently got a lovely cardigan from Woolovers, who have a nice selection of fairisle bits this year. It looks great with smart trousers over a shirt. I can layer as and when I get chilly.

I love that last one.

@Makemedoit - I’ve got that C&C one in extra small. I would agree it comes up a little big, I’m an average size 10 on top 32E chest .
Its a lovely jumper.

It has holly on it so I would say it is festive by association. A colleague once banned me from wearing my snowflake-yoke fair isle after Christmas 😂

I have two .. and Eribe one in bright yellow. It’s gorgeous but I bought a size too big.
I also have a Brora lambs wool one .
I love them.

@EastFortySixth lovely jumper and it goes well with the collared top. Can you tell us where it's from please?

was jumper

This is my White Stuff jumper from last year. The first two times I wore it I got compliments, one from the parcel delivery lady, so a random stranger! Quite like this years version also.

Also love that EDW ochre jumper. Ochre is a colour I never used to wear, but since discovering I’m an ‘autumn’ have started to embrace it.

@EastFortySixth it’s beautiful. I’m going to find mine.

Thanks it’s from Boden (not me in photo for clarity…I certainly don’t style it so well 😊). I’m not sure they have the same one this year as I couldn’t find it on the website…photo is from a google search. It’s super soft and comfy though…I love it

Love a bit of Fairisle but also Scandi-style knits - bought this lambswool one last winter in red, it's fab - quite tempted by the cream and blue one now that I'm looking at them again, hmmm... Red one is v toasty and feels like good quality and value for money at £59.

Loving these - tempting! I got super into knitting during the lockdowns and now do my own fairisle garments 🤣

i wore this one last night - it is beautiful. Much better quality knit than the celtic one i bought my DD last winter.

I do like House of Bruar. I have one of their vintage style cardigans with the metal buttons.

I'm envious of people who are good at knitting. That's some beautiful work @Bimblesalong

@ArabeI We have an annual day of hilarity when the House of Bruar catalogue arrives because some of what the 'country set' wears looks quite bonkers! But I do like some of their knitwear quite a lot. And as a lover of tweed, it would be great fun to dress up in some of the madder stuff - a cape and some plus fours perhaps!

@cushionfiend Any chance you could repost the link? Can’t seem to open it.

@bilbodog i brought last years version, and tempted by this years colour as well.

@bilbodog how is the white stuff one for sizing?

@drivinmecrazy

the jumper is on the generous size - i am 18-20 these days with
whitestuff so bought size 20 and it fits how i wanted it to - relaxed fit.

I like this. Can’t afford it though
