How to Knit a Top Down Fair Isle Yoke Sweater Workshop with tutor, Anniken Allis
Saturday 12th September 2026 | 10.15am - 4.15pm
Circular yoke sweaters are perfect for a variety of stitch patterns. In this class we'll particularly look at using fair isle patterns on the yoke. The class will be based on working a sweater from the top down in the round.
In this class you will learn how a circular yoke is constructed and in particular how to include a fair isle pattern. You will learn how to work the circular shaping and how to adapt it to suit your fair isle pattern. You will also learn how to calculate the numbers for your own sweater.
Please bring: 4mm, 80cm circular needles
Skills needed: Knit, purl, cast on and cast off
