The colourful knitwear on show at this intriguing little shop will drag your ideas about woollens firmly into the 21st century. Ms Forsyth’s trademark design is a flamboyant, flared woollen coat (it can be knitted to order in colours of your choice), but there are also box jackets, jumpers, hats, scarves and shawls.
