{"product_id":"knitting-wester-ross","title":"Knitting Wester Ross","description":"\u003cp\u003eWester Ross is sometimes described as Scotland’s last wilderness, but this extraordinary place of high mountains, dramatic lochs and sweeping coastline has also been profoundly shaped by community and culture. Here, Pictish artists carved their mysterious stones, Bronze Age settlers built innovative roundhouses, and resourceful crofters shaped the landscape through the seasonal rhythms of shoreline and shieling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTaking inspiration from the objects, places and people of Wester Ross, Kate is joined by local writers Karen Buchanan and Jeremy Fenton to explore the landscape’s important human story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Kate’s design collection, you’ll find a warm cardigan in memory of the Arctic Convoys, a lace shawl whose edging references an innovative use of shells as tools, and signature stranded colourwork inspired by local industry and Gaelic song. Kate commemorates the life of teacher and activist Kay Matheson with the iconic Skirt of Destiny, while talented guest designer Lucy Hague contributes a showstopping Pictish wrap featuring reversible travelling cables. Illustrated throughout with Tom’s glorious photography, this book will inspire you to pick up your needles and take a trip to Wester Ross. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e13 patterns are included in the book\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContributors: Tom Barr, Karen Buchanan, Kate Davies, Jeremy Fenton and Lucy Hague.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e136pp. Designed and printed here in Scotland.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA code for a complimentary digital copy is included in the book\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kate Davies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55546154189176,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0271\/6257\/4915\/files\/kate-davies-wester-ross-knitting-pattern-book-the-woolly-brew_1.jpg?v=1777986887","url":"https:\/\/thewoollybrew.co.uk\/products\/knitting-wester-ross","provider":"The Woolly Brew","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
