This Shetland Sport has a wonderful soft smooth handle, most definitely suited to shawls and other special knits. The Border Mill’s semi-worsted spinning really suits the ‘scary fine’ Shetland wool from Helendale Shetlands, Meadows Flock, Woodside Croft and Bogallan.

Three shades of Shetland in this batch:

Cream
Grey Marl
Fawn Marl

Yarn origin
Source of fibre: Highlands, Scotland
Cleaned and Milled: Borders, Scotland

Shetland wool has long been known as the finest in the British Isles and these local-to-me flocks are certainly carrying on that tradition.
