The days are getting warmer but it’s still cold enough to wear a hat most mornings. Fair Isle patterns are a great way to make these hats pretty as well as functional. (The double yarn knitting makes them extra warm.)
This is wonderful book and it can be found at the Seattle Public Library.
Once you start to get the hang of it you can leave the patterns behind and let your imagination go crazy.
Knitting is a craft in which two needles along with thread or yarn are used to create fabric pieces or garments by creating loops in the yarn. Knitting can be used to create many types of fabric, from framed knitting artwork to sweaters, afghan quilts, throws, blankets, mittens, or even bedroom slippers…*,*

Dsc 2845.jpg I would love to know the paatern for making this hat. Love the colors and the pattern. Would you share? Or is it in the Alice starmore’s book?
Hello, I don’t use a pattern. This hat was made using #8 circular needles casting on 140 initial stitches. I go to Google images and scroll through Fair Isle knitting patterns until I see one I like then print it out to follow. Sometimes I will sketch it out too and color it in to see what it might look like.
