Ailsa Craig Hat
WORKING IN three tweedy shades of blue, teal and yellow, Mary Henderson has created pretty, traditional Fair Isle patterning for her winter accessories set. It comprises a cosy cowl, a hat, and a pair of mittens. Mary has knitted her set using a beautiful worsted-weight alpaca yarn from The Border Mill in Scotland. Yarn quantities given (one skein of each colorway) will make all 3 projects.
