Shetland Wool Week
During Shetland Wool Week ( runs annually for nine days during the last week of September into the first week of October) the studio is open daily.
Covid-19
We have a Covid-safe plan in place, so only one bubble can enter the studio at a time. If the studio is full when you arrive, feel free to have a seat on the bench outside—or wander along to the Hoswick Visitor Centre for a cup of tea.

Ordinarily (outwith 2021, when we are operating reduced times) the studio shop is open daily, May-September (and during Shetland Wool Week).
During the rest of the year we have reduced opening hours, and are also open by appointment at times to suit you. Please do get in touch if you'd like to arrange a visit.
Directions
From Sandwick, head to Hoswick.
The studio shop is a small white building and is just around the corner from the old Gospel Hall (wooden building with rusted tin roof). We are on the left hand side of the main street of Hoswick—just before Laurence Odie Knitwear and the Hoswick Visitor Centre (which has ample parking).
Transport
The studio is in Hoswick, near Sandwick in south Mainland. Buses from Lerwick to Sandwick take 30 minutes, then a 10 minute walk to Nielanell. Ask the driver to let you off by the Sandwick shop or Sandwick Hall.
