Working the Fair Isle stocking designed by Cyndy Ebert and Amy Johnson teaches the technique of Fair Isle knitting as well as charting and working an afterthought heel. It’s a fun project for yourself or to give as a gift. Made in worsted weight, it has fewer stitches than a normal sock, so it’s a quick knit. Simple changes with the enclosed chart make this great stocking suitable for a boy or a girl.
