Lolita Skirt Kit - Poison Ivy & Cumulus

The Lolita Skirt 

We've teamed up with Parisian artisanal dye studio La Bien Aimee to assemble very special kits for our frilly Lolita skirt pattern! If you don't already know them, you can view their Instagram profile here.

The Lolita Skirt introduces a harmonious blend of traditional knitting techniques and contemporary fashion trends, making it a truly unique addition to any wardrobe, especially in these vivacious colour combinations. The slit and cascading lace frills bring a playful feeling to the Lolita piece. We can't wait to see your FOs!

The Bases

Veranita

Veranita is our super luxe lace-weight cashmere base. We wanted something unique and rare that would create the most beautiful garments - one we could claim is one of the softest yarns in the woolly world.

• Fibre: 79% fluffy Cashmere, 21% silk
• Weight: 25g
• Length: 300m/325yds
• Recommended size needle: 2.5mm for a tighter gauge or going up to 4mm for a drape effect.
• Care: Hand wash cold, lay flat to dry

Pearl

A gorgeously textured yarn made with a single ply of Superwash Merino wool wrapped in a nylon binder to create regularly spaced slubs. It’s designed to be carried with a smooth yarn in a similar weight like our Suri and DK to bring life to the fabric. Equally lovely when used on its own.

• Fibre: 100% Superwash Merino
• Weight: 100 grams
• Length: 400 meters | 437 yards
• Gauge: 27 - 32 stitches = 10cm | 4 inches
• Needle Size: 2.00 - 3.50 mm | US 0 - 4
• Care: Hand wash cold, lay flat to dry.

Disclaimer: Due to the nature of hand-dyed yarn and different screens/devices, colours may vary slightly from the images.
