Each year, the organizers of Shetland Wool Week, produce an annual publication filled with inspiring designs to knit and essays on knitting, Shetland and the fibre arts.  This year's annual, includes patterns for the 2023 Shetland Wool Week hat - Islesburgh Toorie as well as nine other stunning patterns that highlight the versatility and beauty of Shetland wool, Fair Isle, and lace knitting. It features inspiring photos from the Westside of Shetland, where unfazed sheep roam the landscape and breathtaking views abound. Whether you’re drawn to natural hues or bold colours, intricate lace, or the careful positioning of Fair Isle motifs, we hope these pages inspire you to pick up your needles, raid your wool stashes, and immerse yourself in the timeless art of knitting.
