Knitted in double-faced jacquard, this scarf is fully reversible to give an interesting difference and contrast between the two sides.
A piece of the beach at Hoswick, to wear. Extra-fine merino yarn means this bold scarf is also beautifully soft and warm.
Colour
We are now making Shoormal scarves in shaela blue and moonlit sand. This blue reminds us of sea-washed pebbles on the beach at Hoswick. Shaela is a Shetland word, most often used for blueish grey. It’s also the name for a particular type of mist that settles in the evening. Moonlit sand is a lovely, pearly white.
All pieces from the Shoormal collection are now being knitted in the shaela blue and moonlit sand colourway.
Sizing & fit
One size
- A (width): 16cm

Materials
- 100% extra-fine merino wool (Oeko-Tex Standard 100)
Manufacture
We are committed to sustaining and being part of UK knitwear manufacturing – and Shetland’s place in this.
- We design Nielanell knitwear in our Hoswick studio, with initial concepts carefully translated into the flat panels needed to make up each piece.
- Currently, for this garment, we are working with specialist knitters in Mainland UK to make these panels.
- The garment itself is made in Shetland. Our in-house team in Hoswick transforms the flat panels into a wearable piece of knitwear using linking (a skilled knitting process) and hand-finishing.
- Our knitwear is made in very small batches, slowly. Each piece of Nielanell knitwear can take approximately 12-16 weeks (often longer) from weighing out the yarn needed in our studio to the garment being ready to wear.
The monoprint that is the origin of the Shoormal collection. I made this while was experimenting during the design process for another collection.
Notes from the designer
Between tides
Shoormal is a Shetland word for either the space between high and low tide, or the high tide mark itself.
I realised that a monoprint I’d made during the design process for another collection, and put aside, had strength in its own right. I started experimenting with the imagery: placing them into garment shapes and getting swatches knitted, and then sample pieces of knitwear made up.
It was during this process that garments began to make me think of the shore here in Hoswick and that interesting space in-between tides: the shoormal.
