Inishmore Is Calling Me

Inishmore is calling me. Am I nuts? The more I think about knitting the St. Brigid sweater, the more I hear the lure of Inishmore!

Inishmore seems to be more fitted than the boxy tunic style of St. Brigid. When the tunic style was popular many years ago, I never joined in. Tunics just don't look that great on me. When a friend of mine saw St. Brigid she remarked that it looked like a jacket. I've been thinking about what she said and I think she may be correct. The teeny tiny models in ARAN KNITS almost look like line-backers for a football team.

So, which would you knit? INISHMORE (first and second pictures) or ST. BRIGID(bottom)?
