🕯️The Winter Festivus Collection🕯️
Step into a world where winter’s quiet magic meets the deep nostalgia of yuletide traditions. The Winter Festivus Collection is a moody, enchanting palette of hand-dyed yarns inspired by the darker side of the season — where hearths crackle beneath garlands of dried orange and cranberry, where frost-laced evergreens shimmer under pale moonlight, and the sky dances with the haunting glow of winter auroras.
Each skein captures the ethereal beauty of snow-dusted landscapes, candlelit corners, and the mysterious stillness that settles just before the solstice. Whether you’re stitching by the fire or working on meaningful handmade gifts filled with winter’s wonder, this collection wraps you in the quiet drama of the season’s most magical moments.
The Colorways
Cider Spice
Brewed in warmth and steeped in tradition, Cider Spice is a colorway inspired by mugs of spiced cider shared around a crackling fire. With rich shades of warm, spicy brown — from deep fiery cinnamon to clove and toasted caramel — it evokes the scent and comfort of winter gatherings and slow, cozy evenings.
This colorway wraps your stitches in familiarity and warmth, perfect for projects that call for earthy richness and a touch of seasonal nostalgia. Cider Spice is a toasty, grounding hue that brings the essence of comfort into every row.
Fir Noir🌲
There’s a quiet mystery in the heart of a dark evergreen forest at night — where the air is still, the trees loom tall, and the only light comes from a distant moon. Fir Noir draws its inspiration from the shadowed stillness of dense evergreen forests in winter. Saturated shades of dark green evoke the quiet strength of fir boughs dusted with frost, standing tall against pale skies and drifting snow.
This colorway brings depth and grounding to any project — a moody, elegant tribute to the enduring beauty of winter woods. Whether paired with brighter tones or worked on its own, Fir Noir is a timeless green with a quiet, powerful presence.
Velvet Cranberry
Lush and striking, Velvet Cranberry is inspired by the deep, tart hue of winter cranberries — a seasonal staple. This colorway features layered shades of rich cranberry red, punctuated with dark, inky blue speckles that add depth and texture, like shadows falling across velvet.
Elegant yet bold, Velvet Cranberry evokes the contrast of festive abundance against winter’s subdued palette. It’s a color made for statement pieces and heirloom knits — dramatic, refined, and undeniably seasonal.
Silver & Smoke
Silver & Smoke is inspired by the stillness that lingers after the flames have faded — the soft, powdery gray of cooled ash, the curl of smoke in the air, and the quiet reverie of a fire long gone. Dyed in layered shades of ashy gray with scattered charcoal specks, this colorway is subtle, textural, and contemplative.
It evokes the quiet close of a winter night — the warmth spent, the embers dimmed, and the calm that follows. Silver & Smoke is a neutral with depth and mood, perfect for grounding colorwork or adding quiet drama to any project.
Shadow Solstice🌙
Shadow Solstice honors the deep stillness of the longest winter night — a time when the world is quiet, the sky is endless, and darkness stretches unbroken. This colorway is a true, neutral black with subtle wisps of soft gray, like moonlight barely breaking through heavy night.
It’s bold, minimal, and full of quiet power — the kind of color that anchors a palette or stands strong on its own. Shadow Solstice is a tribute to winter’s most contemplative hours, perfect for pieces that embrace simplicity, depth, and contrast.
Nocturne Teal
Nocturne Teal channels the mystery of a cold winter night — where shadows stretch long, the air is sharp, and the sky holds a quiet, inky stillness. Dyed in saturated shades of dark teal, this colorway feels both cool and enveloping, like the hush that settles just before midnight.
It’s a rich, contemplative hue that speaks to the solitude and beauty of night — subtle, bold, and perfect for pieces that invite stillness and depth. Nocturne Teal brings a cool sophistication to winter stitching, pairing effortlessly with both moody neutrals and luminous accents.
Yuletide Hearth
Yuletide Hearth captures the warmth and comfort of gathering around a glowing fire on a cold winter’s night. Dyed in glowing shades of amber, ember orange, and soft pine green, this colorway is inspired by hearths dressed in dried citrus slices, fir sprigs, and the flicker of candlelight.
It’s a celebration of winter tradition — the kind that lives in quiet rituals, the scent of woodsmoke, and the simple beauty of seasonal greenery. Cozy, nostalgic, and full of warmth, Yuletide Hearth brings a golden glow to your winter stitching.
Winter Aurora
Winter Aurora is inspired by the rare, breathtaking sight of auroras dancing across a frozen night sky. Dyed in shifting tones of moody shifting violet, glacial green, and deep star-studded indigo, this colorway echoes the ethereal light that ripples above snowy landscapes in the stillness of winter.
It’s a colorway full of quiet movement — luminous yet subdued, like an interlude of color in the dark. Winter Aurora brings a sense of wonder and contrast to your stitching, perfect for those drawn to nature’s most fleeting and beautiful displays.
Polar Dusk❄️
Polar Dusk captures the stark beauty of a frozen world as daylight fades into a deep winter night— when snow-covered ground reflects the last traces of light and the sky deepens into a sweep of starlit indigo. This colorway blends icy pale frosts with inky midnight blues, and just a hint of dusky violet. Capturing the stillness and contrast of winter at twilight.
There’s a quiet vastness here — the kind found only in the stillness of polar nights, where the ground glows faintly under moonlight and the air feels suspended in time. Mysterious, serene, and atmospheric, Polar Dusk is a colorway that brings the calm intensity of winter’s long dark nights to your stitching.
Oxford Frost
Oxford Frost is inspired by the fleeting, violet-tinged light of winter twilight — that quiet hour when day slips into night and the sky deepens to a dusky, regal hue. Dyed in cool, shadowy violets, this colorway captures the stillness and refinement of early evening in the cold season.
It’s both subtle and sophisticated — the kind of shade that lingers, like the last light on snow-covered rooftops. Oxford Frost adds a soft, wintry elegance to any project, perfect for those drawn to moody, refined tones.
