Behind the names: Mysteries of the universe
Some of our colors are inspired by aspects of nature that are a bit distant. These are things that we’re not able to see directly but with the help of some marvelous tools and our imagination, we give them a shape and color.
Our yarns, along with their designs, aim to illustrate those things that are imprecise but humanity has managed to create. The sky and the cosmos for example are often elusive and when science and reason cannot respond, magic may answers these questions. We have grouped these colors that enlighten the mysteries of the universe…
Purple Mystery - 030
A mystery is something that is elusive, unknown… We thought that deep, dark purple was a good tone to represent the unexplainable.

Kaleidos - 625
The kaleidoscope is one of the most famous toys in the whole world. Its shapes, full of color, are reflected in a one-off way. A truly beautiful object that has the power to enchant us. Something similar happened to us when we designed this color.
Available in Worsted
Cosmos - 706
Used as a synonym of the universe in its entirety, encompassing it all. Its origin is the opposite of chaos, something we were able to see in its tranquil, celestial light blue. Seemingly diaphanous but also hiding what mystery it holds beyond.

Poción - 139
Traditionally, magic potions were used to cure, poison or enchant someone. Among these, the idea that it could make one person fall in love with another. We liked the idea that whoever makes and wears a garment in this color, could enchant others.

Talisman - 249
An object used in magical rituals that has the ability to defend us from evil. Generally, it is made of gold and semi-precious stones. What inspired us are its gorgeous colors. For some of us, knitting can be a ritual too. And who knows… maybe a garment knitted in this color can have the ability to protect us as well…

Supernova - 718
Every now and then our galaxy is lit up by a huge explosion, that of a massive star. The images that illustrate this phenomenon are poly-chromatic and we found that our speckled effect reproduced this imagery the best.
