MUSE CHARLIE

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 palettes that represent her life and career over the years that designer Louise Robert was able to imagine the variety available in these hand-dyed artisanal yarns.

CHARLIEThe color CHARLIE is a nod to the story of Charlie and the chocolate factory and its chocolate universe filled with magic and fabulous sweets. When I was little, I was very attached to the author Roal Dahl whose novels I devoured. In addition to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Roal Dahl’s imagination has spawned several stories such as The Gremlins, James and the Giant Peach, Witches, Matilda. For me, Roal Dahl’s world is full of childhood memories that I still cherish today. - Louise
