A wonderful miniature version of the Adult Fair Isle Sweater, this sweet pastel sweater is knitted flat and seamed, with a ribbed collar, cuffs and hem.

This is a good first Fair Isle project for an adventurous beginner - not too much shaping and Aran weight yarn is easy to hold and switch colours.

If you prefer bright colours, pick some rainbow brights or grown-up neutrals.
