Yarn Advent 2020

I'm very excited to be offering Yarn Advents for the first time this year with the theme 'Flora of Western Australia'.

 

I've been enjoying curating a selection of plants that grow from each of the bioregions around WA, join me fellow botany nerds! 

The process of selecting these plants has been quite challenging but also a whole lot of fun. Each plant chosen features interesting colours in both the leaves and flowers to allow for fun and exciting interpretations in yarn as well as selecting plants with colours that flow between the skeins. I also wanted to have as much variety as possible so I have made sure no genus of plants is repeated.

​

To add that little extra, I have been creating digital drawings for each plant to act as my inspiration images. Each day you will receive a mini print of these artworks along with your skein of yarn.

​

Each advent will contain;

• 25 mini skeins inspired by particular species of plants from WA (you can choose a 20g or 10g option) with inspiration artwork.

• 5 mini skeins dyed to form a fade set inspired by the colours of the earth in different parts of Western Australia

• (optional) 100g skein designed to coordinate with the other yarns in the advent as a special Xmas day surprise.

• White Gum Wool Fingering (10g or 20g minis option)
