Vintage Shetland Knitting-Part 1

Episode 3 of Shetland Trader Chats takes you back to when my mum was running her knitwear business in Shetland in the 1970s. I give you some of the history of that and a look at some of what she was designing. I also introduce you to the collection I put together based on her work. This is part one of this particular topic. Next time I'll take a deeper dive into the book and designs. My Ravelry: https://www.ravelry.com/designers/gud...
