SUPER SOCK SOUS-BOIS
This hand-dyed artisanal yarn is no ordinary knitting yarn: the designer behind the knitting patterns Louise Robert Design meticulously created this beautiful collection.
It's by studying the color pallets that represent her life and career over the years that designer Louise Robert was able to imagine all of the variety available in these hand-dyed artisanal yarns.
SOUS-BOIS, or undergrowth, is the short forest vegetation that grows between the ground and the bottom branches of the trees. For me, the undergrowth represents calmness, freshness, and the smell of grass, moss and bark that I love to breathe in during my walks through the woods. There is no better smell in the world than that of the forest! - Louise

This is lovely and soft and has a beautiful drape.
C’est une laine très agréable à tricoter et les superbes nuances de couleurs qui sont magnifiques apportent beaucoup de dimensions à chacun des motifs utilisés.
Super Sock, couleur Métal. C'est un très beau fil, très doux qui se tricote bien. La couleur est neutre et se marie à beaucoup d'autres teintes. Je l'utilise pour faire le châle California Sky pour ma mère avec la Dolce couleur Ombrage.
Ma mère qui a 89ans à trouvé la laine très belle.Mais bobinner rendu au centre de la torsade ...c était plus mêlant et elle a trouvé cela plus difficile.Voilà! L importance de la faire Bobinner.
