This collection came to me in a dream.Â
I envisioned creating a yarn line inspired by Shrek, and when I woke up I laughed about it—but couldn't shake it! Soon, I was brainstorming color ideas, names, and pulling out my dye pans. After sharing the concept in a few Discord communities, the response was overwhelmingly positive. The first three colors I tested turned out exactly as I had imagined, and that's when I knew I had to bring this idea to life.Â
My goal was to create a set of colors that are not only fun and thematic but also super wearable and cohesive. Scroll to the bottom for some color combo inspiration and project examples!
Catherine from Creation Miss Couture teamed up with me for this collection, and it was so fun to team up with another Canadian dyer!
Inspired by the lovable Shrek, this yarn features a warm, earthy green accented with hints of swampy yellow.Â
Donkey's color is as warm and inviting as his personality, with soft undertones of beige and taupe.Â
Fiona's fiery personality shines through her hair, and this yarn captures its coppery hue; bold and vibrant.
This bold red is as regal as Lord Farquaad imagines himself to be.
A stunning mix of magenta hues that captures the enchanting beauty of this misunderstood dragon.Â
