Jamieson's of ShetlandWe love Jamieson's of Shetland wools. Operating from the Shetland Isles, Jamieson's have been producing high quality wool yarns for over 100 years. Made from Shetland wool, these yans are perfect for Fair Isle and colourwork. We stock a large range of colours and are happy to order those we don't have. Currently we stock Spindrift 4 ply and DK weights, but will be introducing heavier yarns in the autumn. We also have kits and wool packs for the patterns in the Simply Shetland books.

Jillybean YarnsWe are very pleased to be stocking Jillybean's The Sheep We Meet yarns. Jill has commissioned the spinning and blending of local to Somerset wool and has produced some really unusual yarns. She has then handyed a range of these in absolutely gorgeous colours. Have a look at our range of both hand dyed and undyed yarns.

Alice Starmore BooksAlice Starmore is an extremely talented knitwear designer who lives in the Scottish Isles. She has been designing knitwear for many years and her out of print books can commend extremely high prices. Luckily several of her best-sellers have been reprinted and these include Fair Isle Knitting and Aran Knitting. These are widely acknowledged to be definite guides to their subjects. The patterns are complex and fascinating, the photography is beautiful. We recommend them!
