Spring 2010
Gudrun was born in Shetland in the 70's when her mother was runnning the successful knitwear design company, The Shetland Trader. Some 30 years later and now living in the U.S, Gudrun has followed in her mother's footsteps by reviving the Shetland Trader name, and has made a name for herself in the knitwear design industry.
Gudrun likes to include aspects of her Shetland heritage in her designs, utilizing traditional lace patterns in a contemporary context. She has plans to explore the use of Fair Isle in her designs and hopes to re-work some of her mother's original designs for which patterns were never written.
Gudrun publishes a blog under the Shetland Trader logo where she has designs for sale. She has also been published in several prominent online magazines.
