1940’s Fair Isle Pixie Hood and Mittens Vintage Knitting Pattern

A charming Fair Isle Pixie Hood with matching mittens, perfect for using up small amounts
of leftover yarn. The hood features a drawstring neck, and the mittens have turn-back cuffs
for added warmth and comfort.

The Fair Isle pattern is worked from a colour chart for easy guidance. Originally knitted in
Copley’s 3-ply “Excelsior” wool, requiring approximately 3 oz (86 g) of main colour and
1 oz (29 g) of contrast yarn for the full set.

Tension: Over patterned sections after pressing — 9 stitches to 1 inch in width and 17
rounds to 2 inches in depth.

A delightful project for knitters who enjoy traditional Fair Isle techniques and timeless
style.
