I got some at Jameieson's when I was in the Shetlands several years ago.
Made a sweater out of it and have worn it for year with no problems with
itchiness, pickiness, or harshness at all.  Very nice yarn, good handle,
wears well, and IMHO is just what a Shetland yarn should be - referring here
to yarn spun from the fleece of a Shetland sheep :)

Have a color card & would be willing to help you with colors if you could
tell me what the WW catalog is?  I'm assuming Woodland Woolworks?  If I'm
assuming correctly, I don't see Jamieson's yarn in it but I'm looking at
Spin-ol-o-gy.  Knit-ol-o-gy is around here somehwere.......
