Bacardi Jim in his new sweater

Maybe someday I will get brave enough to try it. I do love the designs of a lot of Fair Isles I have seen. The other drawback is that I mostly knit while watching TV so the more mindless the pattern the better.

Mashed taters and devilled eggs waiting for me?

I find its best to work on during summer time reruns!  Though I also get movies in from netflix so that doesn't help    Actually once you get into the rhythm of the pattern its fairly easy to do.

My biggest trouble is getting not paying attention when I changed rows and look closely at what I was looking at.  I'm at the part where I go back and forth for the neck. that's the most difficult. Working in the round was much easier. Don't have to pay too much attention to wrapping the yarn. It's when your purling that gets confusing!

I did however try to do it while I was talking but could only do it after I started around and then took a several minutes during the start of new rounds while i get the pattern down. But I have to admit I'm not hip on the back and forth part.

I keep several projects going so I can do the mindless knitting. Thats my favorite type of knitting
