Moor is a FO!
Inspired by Lady Prudence, I hunkered down this week and finished Moor, the fair isle vest from Rowan's "A Yorkshire Fable". I think I set some kind of record for myself, finishing something in less than a month. I'm very pleased with the result. The yarn, Rowan's Yorkshire Tweed 4-ply, is divine.
And it fits!

Great gads, you knit that very quickly. Where did you get your Knitodryl?

It's so pretty. Who's the designer again?
Just in time for winter weather.

Caroline, this is a Kim Hargreaves design. I really like the way it fits and will probably try to mimic the side shaping for another FI sweater.
Nanette (what a great name :-)), I am in awe of YOUR knitting. Your blog is one of my daily morning must-reads.

I'm going to have to get going on my WIPS to keep up with you and Lady Prudence.
Thanks for the inspiration.
