Friday Craft Film - Folk Art meets Fair Isle

In the first of a new series of blog posts looking at craft in film, we bring you a film on Andrea Williamson’s Shetland studio from which she runs her textile business. 'Drawing her inspiration from the Fair Isle tradition and the colourful world of folk art, Andrea creates objects that bring a modern twist to the islands’ knitting heritage.'

View the film below, or on the BBC website.

Producer: Jolene Crawford

Director: Richard Crawford

Get involved

If you have an online craft film you would like to share, we would love to hear from you. We're looking for films that showcase craft makers, special craft projects/exhibitions, enterprises, or other fun and quirky films that help to celebrate craft. 

It could be a film of you at work, a narrated film about the inspiration behind your craft, a film made for an exhibition, or something else. 

Just email laura@craftscotland.org with the following details:

  • A short description of the film, including any credits
  • A link to the film on YouTube, Vimeo, or another channel
  • Whether or not you have a profile page on Craft Scotland

You do not need to be on the Craft Scotland site to send us your films, but films about Scottish craft, makers and places will be given priority.

Please note: at this stage we are not looking for instructional, 'how to' type videos for this feature.
