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.

This color refers to a very particular work by Auguste Renoir: the Bal du Moulin de la Galette. This is a genre scene where the painter represents his friends in an outdoor lively crowd on a Sunday afternoon. This canvas displays a play of shadows and light in a blu-ish atmosphere dotted with bright spots. I've always liked the way Renoir uses blue to highlight the shaded areas in this canvas. - ๐‘ณ๐’๐’–๐’Š๐’”๐’†

Bel effet et douceur

Je la combine avec la bis-sock marmicelle pour le spring Shawlette, ร  date le rรฉsultat est trรจs beau, souple et dโ€™une grande douceur.

Un geste sensuel, une couleur intense

Jโ€™ai achetรฉ la couleur Botticelli en ligne. Difficile de bien juger de la teinte. Le fil sโ€™avรจre plus vert (teal, diraient les anglophones) que bleu mais jโ€™aime beaucoup. Cโ€™est un rรชve de tricoter ce fil en double (en 6 mm) pour un chauffe รฉpaules.

Great Products and Excellent Customer Service

I was looking to order Mohair Silk wool on line, to match previously purchased wool. I contacted Lisette at Biscotte, and asked if they could look at the wools for me. They sent me pictures of the wools side by side and made a recommendation of a different color which I ended up purchasing and totally love. I appreciate all the staffs help they were wonderful to deal with. Thank you.

Beautiful Yarn- Kid Silk Klimt

This yarn is absolutely gorgeous, I'm so excited to knit with it. The colour was accurately represented by the photo (I would say it's even more beautiful in person) and it came quickly! I will definitely order more.

I cannot unwind the yarn.

I cannot unwind the yarn. It's like the strands are glued together. I understand that working with hanks of yarn takes a little more time and effort but this is ridiculous. I bought four of these as the base for an airy sweater but now they're just going to end up unused at the bottom of my stash.

Bonjour,
If I understand correctly, you haven't had your skeins wound. If you have, I think that with this type of yarn, you need to start unwinding from the outside. However, to better understand what you're experiencing, you can send us a photo of the problem you're describing.
Please use our contact form, which you can find on our website.
