Hello knitters! I have setted myself the goal to learn a new technique every few months. Now that I’m comfortable knitting in the round I’m looking to dip my toes into colorwork and was wondering if you had any recomendations for patterns to introduce me to fair isle. Preferably a small project, as I’d like to work my way into a sweater.

Thanks in advance for any recs, I’ve already learnt so much from you guys here :)

      @kurobita wearing a pair right now! They’re super warm because you effectively have two layers of yarn.

      oh, pro tip: get wool that’s a bit rustic, like Shetland or Norwegian or whatever is sticky/grippy around where you live. SO MUCH easier than, like, superwash merino if you’re starting with colourwork.
