I love ‘Windermere’ and I wear it a lot. It’s easy fit style makes to perfect to throw on with a pair of jeans. It’s a good design to knit for those not as confident with fairisle knitting as it only uses two colours throughout.

IMPORTANT YARN NOTE: Rowan has discontinued Rowan Fine Tweed. As an alternative you can use the following colours in SPINDRIFT from Jamieson’s of Shetland:
A. Paprika 261, B. Eesit 105.
As the yardage is slightly higher on SPINDRIFT, you will need approximately 2 balls less of the main colour A and 1 ball less of the pattern colour B.
