{"product_id":"fabulous-fair-isle-beanie-knitting-pattern-by-jenny-occleshaw","title":"Fabulous Fair Isle Beanie","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis beanie is a project made from Fair Isle Graphs for the Fair Isle Tea Cosy. After I had made the Tea Cosy I thought it would make a great hat so I did the calculations for a ladies beanie to see if it would come anywhere near matching the correct  stitch count. The Fair Isle graphs were 30sts and 6sts repeats. So I would need to use a multiples of those stitches to make it work. An 8ply ladies beanie needs 121stitches for the body to make it fit the average woman’s head when knitted in 8 ply. I we use the tension guide of 22sts to 10cm. and consider that a beanie will need to have a 56cm diameter when stretched slightly. So luck was with me on this occasion and I was able to use the first and second of the graphs from the tea cosy to feature in my Winter Ladies Fair Isle beanie. I changed the colour scheme and you can see that it gives the panels quite a different look. If greens and blues are not your thing then choose a colour scheme to suit your Winter look.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LoveCrafts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56736184009082,"sku":"UPID82218","price":8.5,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/3219\/4170\/files\/b869e0456482528514097fa7f0e93f17511b888e_UPID82218_172851707518284.jpg?v=1775748355","url":"https:\/\/www.lovecrafts.com\/en-au\/products\/fabulous-fair-isle-beanie-knitting-pattern-by-jenny-occleshaw","provider":"LoveCrafts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
