    Cheers Bren.

    Fantastic picture Kyle. Thanks for posting it. The Fairisle jumper is a timely post int the light of Matts recent thread. Am not convinced myself as its a fashion which has long since disappeared from our shores. Rather reminds me of Rigsby in Rising Damp. A classic comedy series from the 70's featuring the late lamented Leonard Rossiter.
    Have got my eye on a rather nice Aran sweater on eBay at the moment.

    I'm with yiu, Simon. When it comes to jumpers I, too, prefer the look of Arans over Fairisles.

    Alas, in Southern California it so seldom gets cold enough to justify the purchase of one.

    As you said Simon, there is no higher authority on the Clan than the Chief. Thanks for taking the time to sort it out. Cheers to you Sir

    No problem Mike I am so pleased I got a response in person from the Lochiel. It is nice to know that even though he is The Lord Lieutenant of Inverness-shire he still would take the time out of his busy schedule to reply to a sassenach.

    Aye, but the sassenach in question is a Cameron sassenach at that! Well done sir.

    Well done! I am partial to the Aran style as well!

    Cheers,
