Telling stories, knitting stuff
Shetland 2000 Travel Logs
The premier collection from Ron Schweitzer and Yarns International, published in 1998, contains nine patterns, designed with the palette of natural colors in mind. Inspired by Shetland knitting traditions, these patterns were conjured from an "unmapped journey." In addition to the nine patterns, you will get tip sheets to help with yarn substitution, steeking, sizing, and reading the charts.
