02 / The Color Story

Every month, our curation team pulls dye-lot samples until the palette tells a story — not a trend.

Dye Studio Visit

Each month, we visit one of our partner dye studios — watching fresh skeins emerge from the pot, choosing based on feel as much as color.

Palette Composition

We lay dye-lot samples side by side until they drift together naturally. A palette earns its place when it surprises us.

Pattern Pairing

The pattern card is chosen to show the colorway at its best — sometimes simple, so the yarn speaks; sometimes complex, to show what it can do.

“We stop when the palette makes us want to cast on immediately — that's how we know it's right.”
