In Shetland Shades: Stories in Wool, celebrated knitwear designer Gudrun Johnston takes us to her Shetland roots and the rich knitting traditions of the islands.

Inspired by Shetland’s rugged landscapes and extraordinary palette of natural shades, the book explores color in many forms, from traditional Fair Isle and color blocking to mosaic knitting and marling. With a dozen knitting patterns, Gudrun brings her distinctive eye for color and contemporary design to the traditions that have shaped her work.

Shetland Shades: Stories in Wool focuses on richly hued vests, complemented by a selection of beautiful hats and scarves. The vests feature versatile and engaging constructions that make beautiful layering pieces for any outfit.

Color is at the heart of the collection; Gudrun draws from the many shades found in Shetland’s rugged landscapes and translates them into thoughtful and inspiring combinations.

Beyond the patterns, Gudrun’s personal essays offer a deeper look into her creative process and Shetland’s knitting heritage.
