I received a copy of this book from paperbackbookswap. I've often gotten it from the library, and actually learned how to knit fair isle from this book years ago. The sweaters are gorgeous & most of them are easy enough for beginner fair isle knitters. My favorite is a sweater that actually uses slipped stitches and fair isle knitting. ( )

These vibrantly patterned sweaters come from Canada's acclaimed Philosopher's Wool Company, known best for their distinctive color palettes and two-handed Fair Isle method. Sixteen sophisticated sweater patterns feature stunning stars, stained glass, garden patches, and fractured diamonds, plus the popular "Color Your Own" pattern.

I got this in memory of happy hours spent visiting Ann & Eugene's shop in Inverhuron a decade or so ago. Lovely people, and a beautiful book. When she developed the two-handed way of doing Fair Isle she was a prophet following in the footsteps of Elizabeth Zimmermann; now "everyone" does it (except me - I loop one colour around my neck and knit it Turkish style). This looks like a great book and I can't wait to get started.

Very attractive Fair Isle patterns, illustrated in multiple colorways. The best part of this book is the explanation of a two-handed knitting technique that makes color work go faster, and results in a neater finish on the wrong side of the work. ( )

I keep recommending this book to knitters and non-knitters alike. The introduction is a great treatise on living the simple life, and learning to generate an income from your land. ( )
