Shetland Wool Week holiday group in Unst

A party of visitors in Unst, getting to grips with the techniques of Fine Lace knitting in the world epicentre of the craft, the Unst Heritage Centre at Haroldswick.

This group is enjoying a six-day 'Shetland Wool Holiday' organised by Shetland Wool Week, which takes them all over Shetland and includes masterclasses in both Fair isle and Fine Lace knitting.

A second 'Shetland Wool Holiday' takes place in August and Belmont House in Unst hosts two 'UnstKnit' Fine Lace masterclass weekends in October 2015 and January 2016. Details on the Belmont website soon.
