All the women of Shetland knit.
They learn the art in early childhood
and continue It all through their lives.
The wool used for their knitting is
grown on the islands and is carded
and spun by the people themselves.
Machinery they have not except the
primitive spinning wheel. Many Of
the most elaborate shawls have taken
months to make and some even years,
so that a very fine shawl may be worth
as much as $3.50 or 5000. Most Of the
knitting is. however, Of the more home
ly and serviceable kind and may be
bought from the women themselves for

The manner in which the washing of
knit shawls is accomplished in Shet-

their shrinking they are laced from

dressed man took a seat opposite him.
After giving his order in a bluff, genial
manner the newcomer took n sip of
water and faced around. Suddenly a
queer expression came over his face
as he watched attentively the actions
Of his vis-a-vis, and apparently with
out realizing what he was doing he

others, observing the direction Of the
speakers gaze, turned their eyes also
upon him of the quiet appearance ia

The man who had come in first was
in the act OF spreading sugar over a
slice of buttered bread, and when he
realized that all eyes were turned upon
him he blushed like one detected in O
