Bohus knitting is a great way to change up your traditional Fair Isle items. Involving the use of purl stitches in combination with 2-color knitting it can create either a pop of color, or it can mute colors depending on how they are used. Using the Baltic Beret, from Vintage Modern Knits, as a sample students will learn to use this technique to the best advantage and how to design their own Bohus inspired knitting.
