This Fair Isle sweater with turtleneck is a perfect project for more advanced knitters. The Fair Isle pattern requires some concentration and must be adapted to the decreases at the armholes and the arm ball. But experience Fair Isle knitters will not have a problem with that. The sweater is knitted in separate pieces, which are sewn together afterwards.

This pattern is also available as a knit kit on Craftsy!
