This hand-dyed artisanal yarn is no ordinary knitting yarn: the designer behind the knitting patterns Louise Robert Design meticulously created this beautiful collection.

It's by studying the color pallets that represent her life and career over the years that designer Louise Robert was able to imagine all of the variety available in these hand-dyed artisanal yarns.

WATERHOUSE, John Williams is a pre-Raphaelite painter, a movement known to draw inspiration from mythology, Shakespearian characters from the Arthurian legend. The Lady of Shallot, Miranda The Tempest and Ophelia are three canvases that I really like from Waterhouse's work that has transcended nature in all its depth. - Louise
