Field Guide No. 2: Fair Isle

MDK Field Guide No. 2 is all about easy entry into the world of colorwork, with four projects that come together fast.

The aim is to provide a mix of patterns that make it possible to play with stranded colorwork at whatever level you’d like to try. 

Through great good luck, three admired designers were able to collaborate on this project: Véronik Avery, Ann Budd, and Michèle Rose Orne.

The three patterns in Field Guide No. 2 are elegant in construction, thanks to the talent of these designers. These are juicy, delicious, addicting patterns.

Véronik Avery’s Hadley Pullover is the perfect mix of fit and ease. Michèle Rose Orne’s Asterisk Hat and Dot Cowl allow you to play with color and pattern as you like, to cheerful effect. And Ann Budd’s Après-Anything Socks, worked in worsted yarn, can be made so fast that they’re a candidate for Kwik ’n’ EZ Handknit Gift of the Year.
