Knitting Magazine – Nr.185 - 2018

Fairisle Fever

This month we’ve been struck with Fairisle fever. We bring you 25 fabulous knits – from a fishy scarf perfect for beginners to Francesca Hughes’ stunning steeked Royale jacket. Do you love stranding? Is Intarsia more your thing? Hate working with more than one strand of yarn in a single row? Not to worry, we’ve got a knit for everyone. Plus, to help with getting your colourwork stitch-perfect, we provide the answers to a whole heap of colourful questions along with top tips from designers and knitters. Next question: Where do you stand on seamed versus seamless garments? We’ve taken the debate to the experts: Yarntelier’s Louisa Harding tells us why she loves creating seamed garments, while Renée Callahan of East London Knit explores the ins and outs of seamless designs. Which do you prefer? We’d love to hear! So with that as well as all of our regular features, why not brighten up a dreary day with the Autumn issue of Knitting, out now!
