For the past couple days, I've been reading Fair Isle Sweaters Simplified, by Ann and Eugene Bourgeois.
I probably won't make any of the sweaters in the book without heavy modification (they're all excessively baggy and the colourways are a bit aggressive), but the book still contained a lot of useful information about knitting fair-isle sweaters in general. The second section of the book contains thorough information on knitting cardigans and pullovers, both steeked,
I also enjoyed the beginning of the book, which is about the beginnings of the Bourgeois' farm, before they had any farming experience.
