Autumn Fair Isle 🍁
•
These are to be a Christmas gift (for someone who doesn't have Instagram) but as their colours more so reflect autumn I felt it was only right to post now. They are knitted after a pattern by Carina Olsson and it's the Fair Isle mitts from one of her books. All the yarns except the black are plant dyed, some by me and some bought!
Fair Isle is one of my personal favorite knitting techniques, both historical and colourful!

Finished a couple of cleaning cloths inspired by Japanese #zokin cloths nested in a basket I mended with scraps of cloth - because #mendingmatters. The stitched cloths are about four layers of cotton jersey from old t-shirts. Stitched using #plantdyed cotton thread with colorful cotton cloth binding I made from the scraps of quilt I am sewing. Let's keep using our resources to keep them out of landfill.
