From designs using traditional motifs to a playful cardigan with a patchwork of multiple patterns, all the designs in this collection use authentic Fair Isle techniques, including plenty of steeking. With video tutorials and smaller projects like bags, a scarf, and a hat, this is book offers a great introduction to Fair Isle knitting while including more complex patterns for experienced knitters, too.
