This Autumn/Winter 17/18 sees the British design duo C&B, aka Teresa Conway and Nell Bliss, launch yet more fun knitting patterns for the younger crafter.

The pair founded their brand in 2014 and quickly built up a reputation for fun, colourful knits. Bliss, daughter of acclaimed London-based designer Debbie Bliss, grew up with knitting in her blood. Her old friend Conway studied Knitwear Design and Nottingham Trent University. Together they aim to encourage younger people to take up knitting and design patterns in contemporary styles they'd love to wear themselves. No classic style cashmere sweaters to be found here!

These are A Woolly Yarn's favourites from their latest collection:

As well as designing patterns the duo also have their own yarn range. These aren't British yarns, however here at A Woolly Yarn we hope to see C&B champion British wool in the future.
