Description

West Yorkshire Spinners are proud to present ‘The Croft – Shetland Tweed’ produced from 100% Shetland Island Wool.

After a long wait the opportunity to work with Shetland Island Wool, a fibre celebrated for its fineness, warmth and strength. WYS were delighted to be given the chance by Jamieson & Smith of Shetland to use this fantastic fleece.

The high levels of crimp and wave in the fleece make it ideal for a hand knitting yarn. The Croft has a soft and silky handle that retains a lot of durability particularly suited to our new tweed collection.

Crofting is integral to the landscape, cultural heritage and social economy of the Shetland Islands. It bonds people and places in a unique way, preserving livelihoods and age old traditions.

The pattern book contains 14 designs for both men and women – The Croft Shetland Tweed pattern book.

There is a second book available.
