The Knitting Room

In Highland Wool you design your own Fair Isle motifs and tartan setts for the Weaver's studio. A pixel motif is already a knitting chart, so here they are as real charts to knit, and real setts to weave.

Fair Isle motifs

Start from one of the game's motifs or tap squares to draw your own (up to 12 stitches by 9 rows). Knitting charts are read from the bottom up, right to left on the knit side.

In the game's own format (what the studio stores):

As a yoke band

Tartan setts

A sett is the order of the threads in one repeat. Tartans mirror at each end, and the same order runs both ways, warp and weft. Pick a sett from the game, or change the threads.

The weaving draft:

Woven (2/2 twill)
