Creative Croft
About us
I live in the northern most part of rural mainland Shetland on a croft where I tend native Shetland sheep, goats and chickens. The chickens are for their eggs, the goats are for their milk and the sheep are for their lovely wool, which I process on the croft by hand. My husband hand shears, I wash, dye, spin and weave into colourful scarves, shawls and cowls. All our sheep are lovingly reared and known by name. I have a strong interest in metalwork, particularly copper and silver jewellery and I fashion pins/brooches for my scarves and shawls. I love working with gemstones and have recently begun making resin beads for the pendants that I make in copper and silver wire.

Very nice and amazingly, arrived more quickly than parcels from ebay which don't have to get off an island first. The pin is a bit less robust than I had expected but lovely never-the-less.

Everything went well and I even received a personal email from Iwona and a little note with the Pin.

While the necklace is lovely I am slightly underwhelmed by the presentation. A box plus a little story about the maker would have added such a lot. As it is I am left to box it and research the maker etc.
