Wrong Again...... Dale of Norway fair isle patterns are apparently a lot different than traditional fair isle.
What I've learned so far.....stranding looks better than weaving in Baby Ull....always hold the pattern color in the left hand and the background color in the right (not how I'm doing it - of course). Can't wait to decrease knitting backwards....or purling in fair isle if that is a disaster.
So...another sweater that won't be perfect...but at least I'm learning something new with each project.
