Shetland Wool Week Annual 2023
Regular price
$59.95 CAD
The Shetland Wool Week Annual 2023, Volume Nine has a grounded feel, taking its inspiration from the hues, textures and detail of Shetland’s rugged coastline and natural landscape.
This issue includes 12 very different Fair Isle, lace and weaving patterns by Shetland knitwear designers who all bring very personal touches and a depth of detail to their work. As always, Shetland wool takes centre stage, with its endless colour options, warmth and durability.
Included is a Heritage pattern by Ella Gordon, taking inspiration from a 1950s jumper in the Shetland Museum’s textile collection. One of our young knitters, Jenny Jamieson, has created a beautiful old shale lace cowl in sea shades redolent of the markings on a mackerel. Another highlight is from Hazel Tindall who has written an ingenious pattern that takes just six balls of yarn and can be knit into four different pairs of mitts; a brilliant and clever use of yarn, design and maths!
This year’s features provide a deeper insight into some of the people who are involved in the wonderful world of Shetland oo – all playing a role to ensure that its heritage lives on.
