It features fourteen knitwear patterns perfect for a trip to Shetland, from cosy socks and hats to colourwork sweaters.
Short travel stories showcase some of Mary Jane and Gudrun's favourite places to visit, taking you on an unforgettable journey to a place that has dramatically impacted the knitting world despite its small size and remote location.
Mary Jane Mucklestone, also known as MJ, is a knitwear designer, teacher, and author of several knitting books who is based in Maine. She is endlessly enchanted and inspired by Shetland's windswept isles. Her book 200 Fair Isle Motifs is used by The Shetland Peerie Makker's after-school knitting program, which for MJ, is the equivalent of winning an Oscar!
