Jamieson's Shetland Knitting Book 2

21 Handknitting Designs in Pure Shetland Wool.

This is Jamieson's second book - featuring many traditional techniques and some that are more contemporary. All use the dazzling array of colors and four distinctive weights of yarn produced by Jamieson's of Shetland. We hope all levels of knitters will be inspired to stretch themselves and try new and challenging techniques ? or simply enjoy familiar stitch patterns and garment shapes, where the beauty of the yarn itself is the focus.
