Blyde On Shetland there are some 20 – 22 dialects. That is quite a lot for this group of islands. On the larger islands they each have their own dialect. On the Mainland 11 different dialects can be distinguished. In Friesland, where I live, they speak a recognized language. But some words in that language are very much like words in other languages and dialects. Bliid is the Frisian word for ‘Happy” (pronounce it as bleed). In Shetland the word for Glad / Happy is Blyde (same sound as in Hide). Knitting Shetland Lace is what makes me very happy / glad.

Bring a new knitting style into your skill stash with knitwear designer Gudrun Johnston. During class, Gudrun will guide you through the techniques you need to knit a traditional Shetland hap shawl. Learn how to start at one corner of the middle section with a single stitch and increase to create a garter-stitch square center. Gudrun will show you how to apply stunning, striped, feather-and-fan lace edging, and give you blocking tips for a fabulous finish. Plus, choose the project style you want to make! Start with the mini-hap to get acquainted; then, create the full hap or the triangular half-hap.
