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.

The Day Dream is an oil painting by Dante Gabriel Rossetti, who was a founder of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Created in 1880, this masterpiece depicts Jane Morris, William Morris’s wife and Rossetti’s secret lover, wearing a green silk dress as she sits on a branch of a sycamore tree. She is beautifully surrounded by lush foliage in various shades of green, which inspired the name of this color.
