🎨 The Color Story: Each skein is inspired by the atmosphere of 1888 London:
This collection is inspired by the layered atmosphere of Victorian London—where fog softens the edges of everything and gaslight casts a warm glow against the night. As the story deepens, richer shades emerge— grounding the palette in the texture of the city streets.
The result is a cohesive, moody palette that feels both atmospheric and wearable—designed to flow beautifully from one skein to the next.
