I named this one ‘fair isle’ because I’m very into knitting these days, and have tried a few stranded color-work projects. I think the Fair Isle knitting technique is more than I want to attempt just yet. But this was super easy! Anyway, 56 holes and mid-advanced beginner.

    How timely! I’m in the midst of knitting Fair Isle scarves (super early start on Christmas gifts), and was looking through binding designs for some journals I’m also working on. I think the Fair Isle binding might be just perfect for them!

Welcome to Becca Making Faces, a blog that started out as a grad school project and has become a place where I post experiments in Japanese stab binding.

Have a look around, and let me know if you have any questions!
