Hello from Rachel on Fair Isle

Hello from Rachel on Fair Isle

By Maggie Nichols

My friend Rachel lives on Fair Isle and I'm thrilled to welcome her here to The Woolly Thistle blog showing us a bit of her life and work. I hope you enjoy her video as much as I do. I especially love seeing her sheep and hearing their adorable names and seeing their eager faces.  Rachel will be a regular contributor to our blog so be sure to leave her a comment letting her know you enjoyed her video!

  • Soooo adorable all your sheep know you and you know them. I can only imagine how hard it is to live and work on the island. I appreciate you letting us see the beautiful stark countryside and all your beautiful" sheepy" companions. I know they will bring the world some great fleeces, and eventually us some great wool.

  • Thanks so much for this delightful video! I’ve been delighted by Rachel’s Instagram posts for quite a while now, so as you can imagine, it’s a real treat to see and hear her here. Rachel, I’m really looking forward to trying some of your yarn! So good to know The Woolly Thistle will help me out with that! ;)
