admin For me, nothing signals the advent of the colder season like the reemergence of the Fair Isle jumper. Its mere sight evokes a fond feeling of warmth, cosiness and a particular slowness which is only afforded on those most frigid days.
Heralding from Fair Isle, an Island in Shetland, Scotland, the Fair Isle knit is marked by a traditional knitting technique which creates patterns in the knit using multiple colours at once. From this small town, the style spread, eventually making its was across the globe, crafted by high-street retailers and designer brands who have put their own touch on the traditional knit.
