My Lola Story

In the last post I shared a project that I'm currently working on, and the yarn I'm using is a Lola from Garnmanufaktur.

What makes it special, is that I chose the colours - and the 'Emma' Lola is available to order at Yarnish! (At the time of this post, they are currently sold out, but will be re stocked)

Today I'd like to share the inspiration of my colours.

My palette is based on Eucalyptus leaves.

The deep wine red might be a surprising choice, but if you look closely you'll see the colour of the new shoots and leaves.

I like to think I have two colour themes - bright yellows and pinks, or these Aussie bush colours (There might be another blog post dedicated to my 'bright' palette)

Last Christmas I made a table runner - as part of the Yarnish Advent MCAL - and had the same colour inspo.

The wildflower necklace kit is also based on the same theme! With other native flower variations available.  

I'm very excited to have my own yarn colourway, and equally excited to share it with you! If you do grab an 'Emma Lola' please share a picture with what you make! You can Tag #ewdmakes, #yarnishandco or #yarnishmakes and I'll see it on Instagram, or send via a direct message!

As my shawl progresses, I'll be sharing more pictures here.

Thanks for Reading, and Happy Crocheting,

Emma.
