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!

  • Hello Rachel from Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley! i loved watching your video this morning. What a delightful tour of your lovely Barkland croft on Fair Isle. Your knitted cap during the hens and sheep introduction is gorgeous! The two jumpers you showed us. are just lovely.

    The land surrounding your croft stirs my imagination and your description of all your fiber work inspiring. I very much hope you post more videos—and let us know when and if your yarns and patterns become available!
