Eriskay
NORTH SEA is a collection inspired by the traditional fisherman knit and is a celebration of nautical cables and Celtic twists, complimented by Nordic inspired Fair Isle. Photographed on Unst, the most northerly of the Shetland Islands…a perfect location to experience the wildness of where the North Sea meets the North Atlantic Ocean.
ERISKAY is a lovely all over stitch design using cabling and twisted stitch. It’s a great semi fitted sweater that will look good no matter what you wear it with. This design is knitted using Rowan’s Valley Tweed. It’s a 4 ply yarn with a soft woolly handle and is their replacement for Rowan Fine Tweed, which unfortunately was discontinued a few years ago.
ERISKAY was photographed at the back of Shore Station overlooking the beautiful Burrafirth beach. Muckle Flugga Shore Station served the lighthouse at Muckle Flugga but has now been converted into flats.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PDF PATTERN IS CORRECT AND THE ERRATA MENTIONED IS INCLUDED.
