Furniture designer Claire-Anne O’Brien knows exactly what's big in home decor right now: knits. The fact that winter will soon be here makes these cozy knitted stools even more appealing -- who wouldn't yearn for warm, comfy yarn furniture accenting her home?
Made in London, Claire-Anne O’Brien's knitted stools definitely have a soft grandmothery feel about them. Available in three spool-wound styles, the seats themselves look scarf-wrapped and snug.
