Spirits were not dampended however and we soon got to work (after a cup of tea and a bacon roll!) judging the colourbox. This is our first year having the colourbox at Walls so there wasn't too many entries but next year I'm sure there will be more!
As with all shows in Shetland there were plenty of animals to be seen..
and lovely knitwear..
We weren't able to stay until everything was fully set up but I'm glad we got a few pictures! Thankfully it dried up and the rest of the day was much better than the morning. We were amazed on the way back to town how lovely the heather is at the moment in Shetland..
You can see why we have so many heathery shades in our Jumper Weight range (FC55, FC56. FC14, 87, 133 to name a few!) FC11 and FC12 are good matches for the grass too!
There are a few more shows still to come (Yell and Unst) but we probably won't make it to those so I hope you've enjoyed our trip around the mainland Shetland Shows!
Happy Knitting :) xx
