This quarter’s Yarn for Book Club is inspired by a series of books we put together about Women in Mythology, including:  Stone Blind by Natalie Haynes, The Witch of Colchis by Rosie Hewlett, Clytemnestra by Costanza Cosati and The Silence of the Girls by Pat Barker.

You can find the books and their descriptions here.

Designed to reflect the book’s themes, we dyed skeins of Bear Paw DK to invoke the feelings these retellings of classic Greek Mythology stories provoked in us.

A few small projects we love for these colors:

Wrap Me Up Sweater Scarf by Knitatude / Chantal Miyagishima

Askell Shawl by Solenn Couix-Loarer

Poetic Poncho by Purl Soho

Moonbumps by Maxim Cyr (perfect for the mini skein pack!)

Patterns are not included and can be found on Ravelry.

Join the Farmers Daughter Fibers Discord group to share ideas, discuss the book, and showcase your creations!
