Knitting from Fair Isle

Modern interpretations of Fair Isle knits, including fishermen's jumpers, scarves and gloves, as well as the traditional long hats known as keps.

Mati Ventrillon was born in Venezuela to a French father and a Venezuelan mother. She trained as an architect and lived in London until 2007, when she moved to Fair Isle. Although she had no experience of knitting, she joined the Fair Isle Crafts co-operative and by the time this dissolved in 2011, she had grown to love the knits so much that she decided to launch her own business.
