As you know, one of the star prizes in the raffle to be drawn at our One off Wool Week Special MRI Maakers event night is a particularly unique Burra Bear made from Harriet’s Hats. These hats have been hand knitted by various people from around Shetland in support of our fund raising efforts, there will never, and can never be another like it.

We’ve already settled on the bear’s address which includes key details specific to the MRI Maakers to date, and we’ll explain these later when Wendy Inkster, of Burra Bears, has finished putting together her masterpiece. Thanks so much Wendy for doing this for us!

However, we’d like your help and involvement with choosing the bear’s name. We’ve narrowed down the suggestions to 4 and will name the bear whichever option gets more votes in the poll below.

We look forward to seeing what you decide, thanks for your continued support.

Of course, if you want to knit your own Harriet’s Hat or Headband, you’ll find the patterns here – Patterns. Also available in Norwegian here – På Norsk
