Bleu Poussière Helios - Crazy 88

Shani of Bleu Poussière collaborated with designer Paula Pereira to create this spring in Tokyo-inspired colorway for the second installment of the 2020 Indie Untangled Where We Knit Yarn Club. For the club, dyers and designers create a colorway and an accompanying accessory pattern, drawing inspiration from various places where they whip out their works in progress.

Shani, a natural dyer out of Quebec, Canada, and Paula, who lives in São Paulo, Brazil, will welcome spring by looking to one of its well-known floral signs.

This lightly speckled colorway is dyed on Shani’s Helios, 437 yards of 50% Merino and 50% Mulberry Silk. It would make a lovely version of Paula Pereira's Talyse shawl, and would also look great in a sweater that requires some drape, such as:
