- Pattern Details
The official 2022 Shetland Wool Week knitting pattern the ‘Bonnie Isle Hat’ has been exclusively designed by festival patron Linda Shearer. These kits include colorway options in the spirit of the festival colors, including our very own MFY-inspired colorway!
Knit the hat in any of the suggested color variations (inspired by the festival's original colorways), or come up with your own color scheme from our full selection of Jamieson's of Shetland Spindrift colors. A special facebook SWWKAL has been launched for the Bonnie Isle Hat. We would love everyone to join in and share their hat works in progress, questions, and photos.
