Knitting Jenny Pattern 31: Fair Isle Inspired Fisherman’s Kep and Design Workbook is a modern interpretation of a traditional Fair Isle fisherman’s kep (or cap or hat).
This fisherman’s kep was designed by Jennifer Daley on Fair Isle, Shetland Islands, Scotland, the historic birthplace of Fair Isle knitting.
The kep is long, conical, and colorful.
This knitting pattern utilizes Jamieson and Smith brand Shetland Heritage wool (or alternately substitute any fingering weight, 2 ply jumper weight, or 2 ply equivalent to a 4 ply).
The suggested knitting needles for this pattern are:
2.0mm knitting needles (for the brim)
2.75mm knitting needles (for the stranded colorwork)
The gauge (or tension) for this Knitting Jenny pattern is:
36 stitches and 42 rows (rounds) to 4 inches (10 centimeters) over the stranded colorwork pattern, knit in the round with 2.75mm knitting needles, after washing, blocking, drying.
The kep is knit circularly. Firstly, knit the brim. Secondly, continue knitting upward to the head. Thirdly, knit the crown.
This book includes both charted and written instructions.
This book includes a corresponding Design Workbook with pattern templates and design advice, to enable the creation of your own one-of-a-kind knitted masterpiece.
Research and information about Shetland geography, Shetland knitting history, Shetland knitting tools, and color theory are also included.
This book includes 114 pages and 17,466 words with 43 figures.
First published in the United States in 2024 by Mall & Mall Press, a publishing imprint of Mall & Mall LLC, Boulder, Colorado.
