Yesterday I took a beginning fair isle class to learn how to knit with two colors in one project (for us, a hat). It was an extremely quick knit, especially after the trap and wrap method finally clicked!
I had some tension issues at our class. My hands were a little sweaty from being nervous, so I had problems knitting really tight so a couple of my first colorwork rows don't POP like they should. Once I got home, my stitches got looser. I have plenty of yarn left so I'll make a second one at some point.
Pattern: Beginning Fair Isle Sweetheart Hat by Krafty1 Designs
