Description
An original design for a Fair Isle jumper. Knit the cherries in red,
with green for the leaves and a pastel shade or white for the
background. There are both written Instructions and charts to
follow.
Size: 34-36 ins. Bust
Yarn used was Copley’s Excelsior Wool 3 ply and you will need
5 oz. (142g) main colour, 2 oz. (60g) in green and 1oz. (29g) in red.
Pair each of No. 10 (3.25mm) and 12 (2.75mm) needles. A medium
size crochet hook for finishing.
TENSION: over the Fair Isle 19 sts. to 2 inches and 9 rows to 1 inch
(after pressing)
The needles are old sizes so I have included a conversion
chart for reference to modern sizes.
The PDF Pattern is easy to download and print
