Shetland

The colours range from white, through creams, fawns to mid (moorit) and deep browns and also come in greys (katmogit pale to darker) and almost black.

For the 4-ply, to add to the interest of colour work, we also offer for sale a selection of gorgeous over-dyed shades of blue, plum, olive and turquoise for our customers to buy. The colours can be worked together to create traditional Fair-isle patterns or more modern but subtle styles.

For more detailed information on TENSION/GAUGE, please refer to the 4-ply and finer, 5-ply guernsey yarns, Double Knitting, Aran and Chunky pages which give data on needles and swatches.
