Shetland Hap Exploration

SHETLAND HAP EXPLORATION - EXCLUSIVE CONTENT

Are you new to the world of haps and hap knitting? Already know and love a good hap?

NOW AVAILABLE!  HAP EXPLORATION INTERVIEWS

The Woolly Thistle hosted our first Hap Exploration KAL this year and as part of our KAL signup, we offered participants access to our exclusive interviews with Shetland hap experts and top designers. Corinne interviewed each of these experts especially for our Hap Exploration KAL. In these interviews they talk about the history of hap knitting, discuss hap knitting techniques, and the yarns traditionally used for knitting haps and more. 

If you missed the 2022 The Woolly Thistle Hap Exploration KAL, or joined us and would like an opportunity to watch the content again, here's your chance! All of the interviews from our 2022 Hap Exploration KAL are now available for purchase.
