Knitting (In Person Classes)
Fair Isle knitting is a knitting technique used to create pictures or images within your knitting using different colours (this is also known as “stranded colour work knitting”). In this workshop you will learn two-colour fair isle and how to knit a traditional snowflake design.
The Nordic snowflake is a very popular design to knit in fair isle and this is what you will be knitting up whilst learning how to knit fair isle. Once you’ve learnt the technique you will be able to follow fair isle patterns and charts without a problem.
In this class you will make a cute little fair isle sachet. Enough yarn is supplied to make one sachet. Fill with some lavender for a lovely smelly item or just hang it somewhere in your home for a Nordic touch.
Intermediate - You must be able to knit and purl comfortably
