Tundra Pullover Pattern

by Fiona Ellis

Directions for this project inInspired Fair Isle Knits, shown below.Rocky landscapes known as tundra are treeless and barren, yet still display their own craggy earthy beauty. The Fair Isle patterning used here draws its inspiration from the ancient fossil remains found along the rock formations. The sophisticated patterns are set in a classic yoke-style sweater—a silhouette that has become synonymous with northern landscapes throughout Scandinavian and Inuit traditional dress. Sized from 35.5" to 53" chest measurements. Shown in Telemark Reindeer (MC) and Cork (CC).

View More Images Inspired Fair Isle Knits by Fiona Ellis In this nature-inspired collection of stylish garments, veteran designer Fiona Ellis showcases her ability to breathe new life into a traditional technique. By playing with the placement and color of Fair Isle patterning and combining it with other techniques such as cables, lace and felting, Ellis creates complicated looking pieces that require only intermediate skills. You’ll enjoy the luscious color combinations and unique placement; some designs have only a little Fair Isle as accent, while others have every inch covered with intricate-looking color work. The use of Fair Isle to accent lace will draw second and third looks; it provides a surprisingly sophisticated finish to such airy garments. The very Victorian and flirty Sway Cardigan has pleated sleeves with the touch of Fair Isle popping up in the front and neck bands. Several of the garments are guy-friendly, in colors he will approve of and with the Fair Isle strategically placed so that the overall look is still very masculine.
