If you're visiting Shetland, we'd love to welcome you to our shop here on the croft. It's packed with our own Shetland wool, hand-dyed yarns, fibres, fabrics and all sorts of lovely things for makers.

From Flock to Fibre

From caring for our sheep to working with their beautiful fleeces, everything we do is rooted in our little Shetland croft. We believe in making the most of this incredible natural fibre and sharing a little piece of Shetland with makers near and far.
