Jumper boards are an obligatory part of sightseeing in Shetland. They can pop up anywhere on the Islands.
For those who don't know it's the best way to keep a Shetland Wool jumper in shape after it has been washed.

Beautiful jumper. Hand knitted?

Beautiful

Actually could do with a frame like this for our jerseys! They have to be washed then laid out so carefully on a flat surface!

This is great, and I love the jumper. I was just wondering what to do with my mum's jumper stretcher. I should keep it, but don't tend to use one!

@777margo Probably knitted by one individual on a machine.
