Learn how to build your own Fair Isle garment using my worksheet chart on Ravelry as a starting point – Link to chart here
I’ll be running my online Build Your Own Fair Isle Vest/Pullover workshop again on 30th May — and this will likely be the final time I offer this session.
This workshop is designed for knitters who want to move beyond simply following a Fair Isle pattern and begin understanding how to build their own garment layouts using my Fair Isle worksheet chart as a starting point.
Whether you dream of creating your own vest, pullover, colour combinations or motif arrangements, this workshop will give you the skills and confidence to start designing in a much more personal and creative way.
What we’ll cover during the workshop
During this 90-minute online session, I’ll guide you through how I use the Fair Isle worksheet chart to plan and develop a garment design.
We’ll explore:
- alignment of motifs across a garment
- how to use the 24-stitch repeat creatively
- planning sizing and shaping
- adapting motifs into your own layouts
- understanding gauge and applying it to your project
- colour placement and motif combinations
- building confidence with Fair Isle chart reading and design
This is not a knitting session — it’s a creative planning and design workshop focused on helping you understand the structure behind Fair Isle garments.
Who is this workshop for?
This workshop is ideal for knitters who:
- already enjoy Fair Isle knitting
- want more confidence adapting motifs
- would love to create more personal garment layouts
- feel ready to experiment beyond fixed patterns
- want to learn how garment planning works
You do not need to be an experienced designer to join.
Included after the session
All participants will receive:
- PDF presentation handouts
- 20% off my knitting patterns

As I don’t think I’ll be running this workshop again, this will be the final opportunity to join the live session.
I’d love for you to come along and design with me.
