Stolen Stitches by Carol Feller Yarn Collection

Stolen Stitches is the yarn line of Cork-based designer Carol Feller, who trained as a structural engineer before turning to knitwear, and it shows the same instinct for clever construction. Nua, the base stocked here in worsted weight, takes its name from the Irish word for new and blends merino with yak and linen. Each fibre earns its place: merino brings softness and bounce, yak a smoky undertone of warmth, and linen a dry crispness that keeps the fabric from feeling heavy. The mix suits textured stitches especially well, which is fitting for a designer celebrated for her cabled patterns.
