Hjaltland - Old Norse (read: Old Romantic) name for Shetland.
Halo - the oh-so-technical term given to the fairy like haze that floats above real Shetland wool, created by the extra fine fibres.
= probably 'the' most natural, sustainable fibre.... ever.
This is exactly why I love Shetland - a bit of Norse, a bit of mist, curly ice, and the wool of course! Keep the beautiful photos coming :-)
