Knitting-Jennie : Inspired by Fair Isle

Knitting-Jennie :  Inspired by Fair Isle 'Knitting-Jennie : Inspired by Fair Isle' started in 2016 by Jennie Ann Rake who prefers knitting to housework! Everything is hand knitted by me.

Most of my activity is now taken up with commissions. You are welcome to contact me about anything you have seen on the page and order your own bespoke version. Many of the garments on the page are either samples, part of my stock to sell at craft events or for another customer. I have a wide range of yarns in my stash - both natural and synthetic fibres - to chose from. If not, I am happy to orde

r in colours to suit your preference. Most of my stock is for adults, but I am happy to knit for babies and children. Payment can be made by bank transfer or by sending a cheque. I generally ask for 50% approx of the cost to be paid before I cast on and the balance paid before dispatch. I do not have outworkers.
