Whether on foot or bicycle, you head into town for a leisurely day. You take your time as you admire the trees lining the street that are ablaze with shades of amber, gold, and deep crimson, their branches swaying gently in the breeze. You stop along the way, maybe the local farmers market for some cheese and veg, and the bakery for that warm crunchy baguette you’ve had on your mind all week. A few more stops but one stop for certain, the local bookshop before heading home. Tucked away in the corner of town, the shop sits with a large fogged-up window and a soft glow of warm lighting that spills out from inside just as the street lights turn on. Through the glass, you catch glimpses of wooden shelves lined with books enticing your imagination. Will you choose romance or perhaps a thriller? Possibilities are endless. As you enter, a small bell above the door rings softly, the sound blending with the gentle murmur of conversation and the rustle of pages being turned….
This is BOOKSHOP WINDOW, a colorway to captivate your imagination.

Quality & Care
All yarn bases are high quality and ethically sourced from farms that follow mulesing-free practices. Each skein may vary slightly from one another due to the nature of hand dyed yarn, but that's the beauty of it! Simply alternate skeins when working with the same colorway to prevent pooling. Yarn is dyed in small batches and then washed with Soak wash, however some bleeding may still occur. For best results, handwash your finished project in cool water using a mild detergent safe for wool and lay flat to dry. I try my best to photograph the color as closely as possible but please note computer monitors tend to vary.
