Folk Fairisle Cushion

The beautiful FOLK FAIRISLE CUSHION was a very popular project at the first FAIRISLE IN THE LAKES workshop holiday in November and December 2018 and then at two day workshops in 2019. It then became a very popular kit. It uses 12 colours of BRITISH BREEDS, which are listed below and is worked in a stepped repeat pattern. Section one is worked, casting off stitches at the start of a new fairisle stripe. Section two is worked the same way but is joined to section one during the knitting. MARIE WALLIN BRITISH BREEDS Mulberry x 1 ball, Mallard x 1 ball, Wood x 1 ball, Eau de Nil x 2 balls, Quince x 1 ball, Chestnut x 1 ball, Raw x 1 ball, Woad x 1 ball, Dark apple x 1 ball, Lime Flower x 1 ball, Russet x 1 ball, Rose x 1 ball.
