 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.

GIVERNY is a village on the banks of the Seine in the Normandy region of France, northeast of Paris. This is the place where Claude Monet lived and painted, making Giverny famous worldwide. Its most iconic feature is Monet's artificial pond. Filled with water lilies and covered by an elegant Japanese bridge, it appears in many of Monet's best-loved paintings, particularly those produced towards the end of his life.

    Beautiful color and feel

    The color works up beautifully. I did a swatch with two different patterns and was not disappointed by either. The feel of the yarn while knitting on my hands was so nice. Socks will soothe special someone’s feet.

    Gorgeous Strawberry Thief

    The Strawberry Thief colorway is beautiful. There are so many subtle colors - it’s a joy to knit. And the SuperSock base is soft yet strong. I love it and can’t wait to try another color when I finish the Summer Lovers socks for the knitalong. Recommend.

    Super Sock The Kiss

    As usual the wool was exquisite. Beautiful drape and yet knits into cozy socks.
