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.
VERONESE is the name of a Renaissance painter who distinguished himself from his contemporaries by his talents as a colourist. He was recognized in particular for his use of green, described by the poet and art critic Théophile Gautier as a green “… glaucous and prasin, ideal and fabulous green, where oversea dominates and which painters call Veronese green…” – Louise
