The Fair Isle

Hi there,

'Fair Isle' is a tiny island north of Scoland after which a traditional knitting technique is named. This technique produces beautiful patterns such as these:

This pretty coloured baby yarn from Sirdar is coloured to produce "an incredible Fair Isle colour effect". Now who could resist?


This yarn was used for the insoles of these white shoes (crocheted from a nylon/acrylic blend), fit for a little princess.
The double-soled shoes measure 3.75" x 2".
The flower petals unclasp from the white flower button...

Hope you like them!
