Grand Shetland Adventure Knits is naturally a Thistler favorite and has been wildly popular! This book is an amazing reflection on Mary Jane Mucklestone and Gudrun Johnston’s time in Shetland and it includes 14 beautiful knitting patterns. The designs are the kind of practical garments that you would pack for a trip to Shetland: socks for cozying up by the stove, a pullover suitable for hiking, and a hat that will keep your hair in place if it’s windy. The book also showcases some of the duo's most cherished places in Shetland, with brief essays of the days they have spent there. 200 pages; Hard Cover 14 patterns (3 sweaters, 2 cardigans, 1 vest, 2 hats, 2 shawls, 1 cowl, 2 pairs of socks, 1 pair of gloves) Language: English Weight: ~1.55 lbs Dimensions: ~7" x 9.7" x .9" Printed in Latvia About the Designers: Mary Jane Mucklestone, also known as MJ, is a knitwear designer, teacher, and author of several knitting books who is based in Maine. She is endlessly enchanted and inspired by Shetland's windswept isles. Her book 200 Fair Isle Motifs is used by The Shetland Peerie Makker's after-school knitting program, which, for MJ is the equivalent of winning an Oscar!
