Autumn’s brown leaves, often described as feuille morte, carry a certain quiet elegance, embodying the season’s shift from vibrant life to peaceful rest. Their once-green hue fades, transitioning through gold and amber until settling into rich, earthy browns creating a warm and vintage atmosphere. These fallen leaves, brittle and crisp underfoot, form a soft carpet that crunches with every step, releasing a distinct, organic scent that lingers in the cool air. The brown of autumn leaves signals the end of their life cycle, yet there is beauty in their decay—a reminder of nature’s rhythm and the inevitable ebb and flow of seasons. Say bonjour to FEUILLE MORTE - a French and more beautiful way to say “dead leaf”. 🍂

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.
