‘A comment from one of our visitors’.

"On our drive back to Lerwick we called by Just Shetland to meet Julia and Stephen Downing. Inside their house we found loom after loom, all set up with a variety of yarns including silk and wool. Julia and Stephen weave a range of products including luxurious scarves and shawls, all  beautifully hand finished.
