Jamieson's Shetland Spindrift
Jamieson's Shetland Spindrift
If you love Fair Isle colorwork—and we sure do—Jamieson's Shetland Spindrift is the bar against which all fingering-weight wooly wools have been measured for generations. Made from the same hardy wee breed as our favorite Shetland Heather worsted weight, this lofty woolen-spun yarn has the perfect toothy texture for stranding and steeking. We also love the way Spindrift felts to an impossibly light, soft finish, so we're currently posting the four colors shown on our Felted Shetland Beret pattern, and we have nearly 150 colors in the shop.
