Fair isle crochet involves creating colored designs and shapes in the background of your project. It’s a very savvy crochet technique to learn because you work behind the background to create the shapes vs casting on and off.

The basic stitches are still the same though, so color changing is the trickiest part. With a little practice, you’ll be a pro in no time.

Fair isle in crochet is a relatively new art, as it’s traditionally done in knitting, but it’s such a beloved classic look that easily fits into your cold weather wardrobe.
