Barkland Croft
Fair Isle through a lens - a virtual tour of the U.K.'s most remote, inhabited island.
My name is Rachel, although you might know me as Barkland Croft, and I've lived on Fair Isle for the last five years. With travel and holidays being restricted this year due to the coronavirus/Corvid-19, I thought it might be nice to share videos of my island, Fair Isle, to those of you who had been hoping to visit this year or maybe even inspire people to visit next year. Over the coming weeks I hope to share different aspects and locations on the isle - the lighthouses, Ward Hill and the old radar station, Malcolm's Head and the old Coastguard lookout, the Kirk and Chapel, the museum (if I can get permission to film), even my croft and sheep if there is any interest! Please let me know if there are locations here that you'd like me to share!
Do have a look at my website for traditional and contemporary Fair Isle knitwear, yarn from my own flock and knitting patterns:
