Fair Isle knitting can be described as knitting a repeating pattern or design using 2 colours in the same row.
There is a bit more information on my blog written just before the first workshop I did .
If you can do both knit and purl stitch with confidence you can progress onto Fair Isle knitting.
In this workshop you will learn the techniques needed to get started with 2-colour (more if you like) knitting.
We will begin by learning about and practising stranding and weaving the yarns at the back of the work.
You will learn how to follow a chart and we will look at choosing yarns & colours for your fair isle knitting.
We will progress into starting your own designer cushion. You will receive a kit (choice of colours) containing 
- Pattern
- 2 x 100g DK yarn
For the workshop 3.25, 3.5, 4, 4.5 & 5 needles.
