Synopsis: From the Jacket: Now beautiful, traditional knitting patterns can be yours with this superb design collection. Aran & Fair Isle Knitting is a unique combination of all the techniques from simple cable knitting in rounds to the intricate designs of the Fisherman's sweaters of the Aran Isles; from authentic Fair Isle decorative borders to colorful, up-to-the-minute Scandinavian and mock-Fair Isle designs; not to mention the exquisite pattern collection for men, women, children, even the baby.
If you are not an experienced knitter, do not be daunted. Every step in our Aran & Fair Isle stitch libraries is beautifully and clearly illustrated in full color. Once mastered, you can then make the delightful garments and accessories we have chosen.
If you are already an expert, we hope you will appreciate our discriminating collection and that it will add not only to your present skill but also to your knitting repertoire. All the patterns are carefully designed and thoughtfully presented to make it easy for you to choose the creation that appeals to you most. For him or for her, from co-ordinate collections to accessories, you can knit one or all. Whatever you make is guaranteed to keep you warm-and still looking good. As a bonus, we will introduce you to the Guernsey Fishermen's knits that are enjoying a tremendous revival these days, and rightly so.
If you enjoy knitting or think you might and have an interest in the traditional skills which have lived on for centuries, then you are bound to enjoy Aran & Fair Isle Knitting.
