Shetland Wool Week Annual 2026

From a beautiful lace detailed jumper to a beanie designed by a ShetlandPeerieMakker, from bold Fair Isle colours to subtle autumnal hues, the designs highlight the remarkable versatility of Shetland wool. Alongside the knitting, this year we share stories from the designers with a focus on Shetlands seasons, and snippets into island life during these months.
