Episode 14 - Donna Smith, Shetland Wool, and Cutting the Steeks

In Episode 14 we speak to Shetland designer Donna Smith. Donna was patron of the Shetland Wool Week and is the creator of the famous and much loved Baa-ble Hat. Donna tells us about the Shetland knitting tradition, shows us a knitting belt, and presents her latest designs. The design for the Baa-ble Hat, and now matching mittens and cowl, are available on Ravelry. You can find a tutorial for the Baa-ble Hat, which is a great introduction to Fair Isle Knitting here:    • Fruity Knitting Tutorial - The Baa-ble Hat   Full program notes at http://fruityknitting.com
