This issue includes 12 Fair Isle, lace and weaving patterns by Shetland knitwear designers who all bring 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.
A Heritage pattern by Ella Gordon is included, 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 wrote an ingenious pattern that takes just six balls of yarn and can be knit into four different pairs of mitts. It was 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 in ensuring that its heritage lives on.
