MUSE KLEIN

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.

KLEIN Yves Klein's distinctive ultramarine blue, known as IKB, is named after him because he created a unique formula that he used extensively in his artwork. In 1957, he trademarked this specific shade, solidifying its identity as his own. Klein's deep admiration for the sky and its limitless nature fueled his passion for blue, allowing him to express his vision of the world. IKB has since become an iconic color, inspiring many artists and designers across various fields. - Louise
