This third volume explores the very roots of the series: the made-to-order knitwear business run in the 1970s by Patricia Johnston, Gudrun’s mother, which operated as The Shetland Trader. > > Through archival research and a network of family, friends, and fibre enthusiasts, Gudrun has unearthed some of her mother’s best-loved designs and updated them for contemporary knitters. This collection contains 11 patterns for garments and accessories. Use them to create seventies-inspired dream ensembles as well as heirloom pieces incorporating traditional Shetland knitting techniques and motifs. **One Size:** **Wingspan:** Approx 70.5cm / 27¾" Depth: 35.5cm / 14" **Yarn (laceweight yarn in the following amounts):** 169m / 185yds yards of laceweight yarn.
