Shetland Wool Week Annual Volume 11

Inside the Shetland Wool Week Annual Volume 11, you’ll find eight gorgeous patterns — from cosy, wear-everywhere knits to the fine lace, with colours that pop in true Fair Isle style and textures that quietly whisper.

But it’s more than patterns. This Annual is full of stories that honour Shetland’s heritage sheep, farming traditions, and the timeless bond between people and their wool. Whether you’re casting on straightaway or curling up on the sofa to dream over the pages, Volume 11 is a real treat for wool lovers.
