Workshop Details
Join us for a colorful dive into Fair Isle knitting! In this class, you'll learn how to use the color wheel as a tool to pick & choose a beautiful color palette for a Fair Isle knitting project - students will have 150 colors to choose from! You'll learn the basics of Fair Isle, how to make a color sampling swatch and how to choose a personal palette for a project.
The class will take place over three sessions, ending with each student taking home enough yarn for a hat, cowl or mitten project of their choice.
You DO need to know how to knit, however, no experience specifically with colorwork or Fair Isle is needed.
