They list a web site, but it isn't valid!!!

There is a warning in this book....it's not about technique or the history of fair isle knitting. It's strictly a black/white reproduction of some typical motifs used for fair isle knitting in Shetland.
I got mine direct from the Shetland Times -- it's hot off the presses - and not shown in the 2008 catalogue!

If you are into designing your own you might want to add a copy to your personal library. As I said, you can never have too many motif references!

Happy Knitting!
