I have spent the last 10 days on Shetland, which is as far north as you can go in the Uk. And while the UK basked in summer sun , the weather in Shetland has been more mixed and a lot colder.
But that hasn’t stopped us , walking and enjoying the beautiful scenery . The wild flowers are beautiful and I have lots of old favourites and many species I have not recognised.
Wool of course has featured in my holiday and I have some new knitting wool and some beautiful grey Shetland fibre. I also tried my hand at using a Shetland knitting belt at the Shetland textile museum. Unfortunately it does not really suit my knitting style.
It’s great to be able to come to such a beautiful place to relax.
