Does anyone have a pattern (Knitting) for an Irish Knit, either Cardigan or pullover, for a baby?

Have you seen how outfits and their related links are formatted on celebstyle.com? I recently got into that site because of the Gossip Girl posts… the editors take a look they see someone wearing (like a GG character) and offer links to all the pieces in the ensemble… either the actual one seen on the show or a less-expensive version. Another way to make it easy to access a lot of links.

BTW, this led to one of my favorite recent acquisitions, which is very omiru in a number of ways… a $34 Urban Outfitters version of a D&G dress I loved on the show… which is red and black buffalo plaid! Must say, the desire to get something buffalo plaid all started at omiru, for me… Very happy with the look, cinched with a wide belt. http://www.celebstyle.com/2507970

Great idea, Christa! Actually, I’d like to compile the Polyvore outfits into a lookbook to make them easier to view. I’d also like to create some outfits with Fair Isle Sweaters to better show how to wear them. Will have to do a Ready Made Outfit or two!

I’m not really a fan. Though I like the Ecote cardigan, I always feel the Fair Isle Sweaters look more like those funky “holiday” sweaters with the Santas and things hehe

Any chance for future survey results that there can be a link to more examples of the trend (i.e. using polyvore)? I’ve always liked your selections and it would be great to get a few more…
