Knit Your Own Scotland. This item is unavailable.Knit Your Own Scotland

Scotland is one of the greatest small countries in the world. Now you can have your very own miniature wooly version to celebrate Scotland in all its glory. With Robert Burns as a knitted National Bard, Braveheart William Wallace, a Highland coo, Scotty dogs, and a knitted Saltire flag, Knit Your Own Scotland is a unique and beautiful collection of iconic symbols from Scotland. There's even a knitted Forth Bridge and the Scott Monument, and if you're feeling hungry, try a Scotch pie or some shortbread. All knitted, of course.
