Faux Fair Isle Cardi & Hat in Classic Worsted and Classic Worsted Tapestry


Pattern Information

We could tell you to pull out your bobbins for winding yarn and your magnifier for reading pattern charts, but we won't. Our secret? The hat and yoke of the sweater are knitted with self-patterning "smart" yarn--the print of the yarn creates the Fair Isle pattern as you knit. Nifty--we know!

Fair Isle knitting has never been easier than in this sweater and hat set. The secret? Self-patterning yarns! You'll easily get the look of Fair Isle with no color changing. Classic Worsted Tapestry comes in many different colorways--choose your child's favorite!
