Jamieson & Smith's Shetland Jumper Weight is the yarn Fair Isle was built on. Spun from 100% Shetland wool on the islands themselves, it has the natural characteristics that make traditional colourwork so effective: a slight stickiness that helps stitches nestle together, good natural elasticity, and a rustic warmth that softens beautifully with blocking. Available in a full palette of solid and heathered shades that includes many of the traditional Shetland colours. Not superwash treated; hand wash or handle with care. If you're knitting Fair Isle or stranded colourwork, this is the real deal.
