Conducive to Daydreaming - PREORDER

"She liked all that soothes, everything that is conducive to daydreaming, all those joys that appeal to young women and amuse youthful sovereigns alike: havens of familiarity where friendship flows freely, intimate conversations in which the mind lowers its guard, and Nature, that friend, and the woods, those confidantes, and the horizon, in which the eye and the spirit can plunge, and flowers with their eternal merriment." 

- Edmond and Jules de Goncourt 

Marie Antoinette welcomes us with open arms, as if she was waiting for us to arrive. 

After enjoying a few delicacies with the Queen and her friends, the sky darkens with an upcoming rain shower. We all hurry into one of Marie Antoinette’s salons where we lounge and chat and wait for the rains to depart. 

Welcome to A Summer at Versailles. An all tonals collection inspired by the palace estate and the Queen who made it infamous. Conducive to Daydreaming is a medium blue-green.

All skeins are hand-dyed with care in a smoke-free and pet-free home. Please note that while all skeins are dyed together, every skein of yarn is unique and there may be some slight variation between them. After dyeing, all yarn is washed and rinsed thoroughly, however, a small amount of color bleeding may still occur during the first wash.  

For best care, please gently hand wash in cold water with a wool wash and lay flat to dry. Store yarn in an area away from direct sunlight to help maintain color. 

This yarn is PREORDER only. Please allow 6 - 8 weeks for the turnaround time.

All photographs are taken in natural light, and I try to keep the editing to a minimum, but colors may vary from monitor to monitor. 

The wool used in this yarn is ethically produced from sheep that have NOT been mulesed.
