In this workshop, we'll introduce you to the basics of fair isle knitting in the round. Once accomplished, this will will allow you to take on any circular fair isle knitting project!
You will be knitting in the round on a 5.0 mm, 40 cm circular needle to fashion a headband. We will be using Aran yarn from Woolyknit, a 100% British yarn in a wide variety of colours.
To be successful in this workshop, you should confidently know how to cast on, knit and purl.
All pattern and yarn will be supplied however you will need to have a 5.0 mm, 40 cm needle because you won't finish the headband on the day. We do have them available for purchase for £5.78 if you don't already have one.
