Traditional Aran motifs, shaped for contemporary wardrobes

Carol Feller’s collection pairs Irish knitting traditions with garment and accessory designs intended for modern wear. Eighteen patterns span women’s, men’s, and children’s pieces, alongside bags, blankets, and shawls, giving the book a broad project range rather than a single-garment focus. Traditional Aran stitch patterns appear in more fitted silhouettes, while accompanying instruction addresses construction methods and ways to refine a finished knit. The emphasis is on using established techniques in updated forms, with practical attention to how a piece is put together as well as its surface patterning.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Intermediate knitters building confidence with garment construction
  • Advanced knitters interested in contemporary uses of Aran stitch patterns
  • Crafters seeking Irish-inspired clothing, accessories, and home projects
