Description

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.

Sandro BOTTICELLI was an Italian painter born in Florence and was one of the most important artists of the Italian Renaissance and the history of art. His favorite subject is the representation of woman, on whom he takes a new look. His paintings Primavera and The Birth of Venus are two works that I particularly like. - Louise

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL YARNS!

I bought two of them to compliment a turquoise colored yarn I already had to make the Brick Pullover. It is really blossoming into quite an exquisite top! So happy with my purchase and would definitely buy it again.

Title evokes the color of thistle. Pretty color.

The yarn with the hemp fibers is soft and pleasant to work with for knitting.

The yarn is great to work. The color is very consistent from skein to skein.

Great yarn, great color – my favorite, in fact

As stated before, in my previous reviews, your beautiful yarn is in my to do basket, awaiting initiation of the project. You know, typical knitter. I don’t ever want to run out so I have something to do when I finish a project, and, that is happening very soon as I am completing a sweater and only have one sleeve to go!
