The patterns
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.

• Ella Gordon | Hattie Yoke
• Elizabeth Williamson | Skelberry Shawl
• Elizabeth Johnston | Starlight Blanket
• Jenny Jamieson | Foogry Cowl
• Emma Geddes | Krokbragd Table Runner
• Donna Smith | Muckle Leaf Beret

• Nicole Coutts | Paet-Bank Gloves & Toorie
• Hazel Tindall | Tak Six Kloos Mitts
• Alison Rendall | Buggiflooer Beanie

We have included another Heritage patternthis year; this time working with Ella Gordonwho has taken inspiration from a 1950s jumper in the Shetland Museum's textile collection.

And for the first time we have included a pattern from one of our young knitters, Jenny Jamieson, who is a secondary school student in Whalsay. With help from her biology teacher (and keen knitter!) Caroline Simpson she 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!
