The Croft: Shetland Colours - A Family Collection by Sarah Hatton

After the success of The Croft - Shetland Tweed pattern book, Sarah Hatton designed this collection of garments and accessories for the entire family. Sarah was keen to work with the yarn once again, and designed a collection of traditional yet modern family garments.  With designs for all the family, this collection features 14 patterns which work in harmony with the yarn both solid and tweed to create something truly special. Background for The Croft Yarns - The rural agricultural community on the Shetland Islands have a long and prestigious history of rearing Britain’s most northerly native sheep breed and collecting its high-quality wool. This is part of a practice known as crofting, which is integral to the landscape, cultural heritage and social economy of the Shetland Islands. It bonds people and places in a unique way, preserving livelihoods and age old traditions.  West Yorkshire Spinners is delighted to work with Jamieson & Smith and the famous Shetland Island Wool, a fib
