Clue is "pretty knitting pattern". All answers are Scottish Islands. "Fair Isle" has to be discounted, unfortunately!

Question Author
H'mm, scorpioj, not Arran. Aran Islands, which gave their name to the well-known Aran knitwear, are Irish.
Janbee, thanks but don't know of any Harris patterns, apart from Harris Tweed, of course, and that ain't a knitting pattern unfortunately. So not Harris.
Catswhiskas, I had a giggle at your answer, but sorry, Argyll isn't an island! See where you're coming from, though.
Why has Fair Isle to be discounted,please,Bracken46?
I wondered that Quinie. It would seem to be the most logical answer.

Fair Isle was used as answer to clue "normally heard with Faroes". Feels right!
Arran?
Question Author
Dannyk13 - Aran (not Arran!) knitting pattern comes from the Aran Islands. They are Irish, not Scottish! But thanks.
No, I've tried that but bracken doesn't like it ^^
Shetland - an isle, also a knitting pattern.

Thanks, Davemano. Agree, but I used that answer to the clue "Small hairy pony" ! ....
le of Arran - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isle_of_Arran Arran or the Isle of Arran (/ˈærən/; Scottish Gaelic: Eilean Arainn pronounced [ elan ˈarɪɲ]) is the largest island in the Firth of Clyde, Scotland.
Look up Danny ;o)
Arran / Aran JUmper

Could be either Ireland or Scotland according to this

Faroe -isle - also described as small pony. Could this replace your Shetland and use it as the knitting pattern
Sorry Jo, I missed that as did the poster I think. :-)
