Shetland Fair Isle knitting kit for a Buggiflooer hat with native Shetland wool.
Murrister Wirset is the result of a unique collaboration between Alison Rendall, 2023 Patron of Shetland Wool Week and her neighbour, crofter Hubert, combining their knowledge and the finest native Shetland sheep fleeces to produce the purest Shetland yarn they could.
Well bred native Shetland breed sheep, evolved over centuries in the landscape, with high standards of animal welfare produce some of the finest wool in the world. Alison has designed Murrister Wirset to be a fine but strong yarn, ideal for traditional Fair Isle stranded knitting in carefully considered colours.Â
Buggiflooer is the Shetland word for sea campion which, growing in abundance around the Shetland coast, is the inspiration behind this design.
