FAQ About The Influence of Traditional Scandinavian Knitting in Modern Fashion

How does Fair Isle knitting differ from other Scandinavian knitting styles?

Fair Isle knitting is distinct from other Scandinavian styles primarily due to its use of colorwork, where multiple colors are knit into detailed patterns often seen as bands or strips across the garment. Other Scandinavian knitting styles, like Selbu, may focus on motifs with fewer colors or different techniques.
