Arela by Emma Wright

Craft: Knitting

Part of the Fell Garth Collection by Emma Wright for The Fibre Co., Arela is a seamed pullover that yearns to join you on long walks or waits patiently to soothe you when you come home.

The Fell Garth Collection is born from a love for beautiful handmades with a practical purpose. Each piece is worked in Cumbria or Cumbria Fingering yarns that were created to be evocative of the mood, light and places that characterise the North West of the UK. All of the pieces in the collection feature rich textures from cables and twisted stitches.

The sample for Arela is shown in the Buttermere colourway.
