Here at The Lace Knittery this heritage yarn holds a special place in our hearts. It was the inspiration many years ago to learn to knit and our love for lace knitting and colour work and ultimately beginning the company.

Another great book from Marie using Jamieson of Shetland Spindrift yarn (at The Lace Knittery we stock all 220+ colours) featuring colour work, lace designs, surface work and all in a beautiful to look at book.
I love the book. It has been a favourite at The Lace Knittery for a few years. The designs are timeless and there is something for everyone. The designs are knitted in Jamieson of Shetland Spindrift yarn (The Lace Knittery stocks the entire 220+ colours) but would also work in Marie’s own British Breeds.
The West Coast is The Lace Knittery’s Scottish home and this book is a delightful mix of patterns and information about The West Highland Way. There is a variety of garment and accessory patterns. It is a treasure trove.
As usual a lovely book from Kate Davies Designs that not only has eleven yoked designs but also delves into the history and construction from Icelandic (The Lace Knittery stocks Alafoss Icelandic yarns) to Elizabeth Zimmermann it is a joy to read and knit from.
