Welcome to Terri Laura Where Shetland Knitting Herritage and a Love of Colour Come Together
Hello from me, Terri
A passionate knitter, designer, and teacher living in the heart of the Shetland Islands. Specialising in traditional Fair Isle and Shetland wool, I combine the rich history with a modern love of colour. Whether you're a seasoned knitter or starting out, I’m here to inspire and guide you on your own creative journey with yarn.
Designing
I create designs that celebrate traditional elements, while using colour to tell a story and bring each piece to life.
Knitting Classes & Workshops
As a teacher, I offer workshops where you can learn the art of having fun with your knitting. Designed to give you the confidence to make each project your own, there are several topics to choose from and they are available in person or online.
Online Shop
Here you'll find thoughtfully crafted knitwear made from local Shetland wool. Patterns and yarn kits are also available to get you started on your next project, or as a gift to your knitting friends.

I have partnered with Amy and Dougie from Noost Knit Co. in Ullapool to offer a knitting retreat in the spring!
