Full description

copyright Elizabeth Lovick 2008

Almost everything you wanted to know about Fair Isle knitting but were afraid to ask!

The workbook runs to 121 pages. It assumes that you can knit, but that you have not done any stranded knitting or colour work. It is arranged in separate ‘lessons’ on the theory and practise of Fair Isle knitting, including detailed instructions with lots of clear photos of topics such as ways to hold the yarns, steeking and dealing with mistakes.

The book includes a pattern for the traditional Ha’af cap and a beanie, with charts for a wide variety of alternative designs (eg fibre animals, Scotties, spindles). It also includes a section on the history of knitting on the Fair Isle and gives an idea of where Shetland stranded knitting is today.

The whole book is lavishly illustrated in colour, but throughout photos have been used which work when printed in black and white. Each section starts on a new page, so that you can easily just print out the pages you want to work from at any one time.

The Small Print!

Once I have received your payment I will send the book as a pdf attachment to an email. The file size is 7 MB so your inbox must be big enough to take a file of that size. (Note that some mailboxes will not accept files of more than 5 MB.) All sales are final.

Please remember that this pattern is copyright, and you cannot use the pattern to make garments for sale without my permission. Thank you.
