Spring is here in Ontario (sort of - hello snow in April) and we are so looking forward to the bright happy colours of warmer weather this summer!
The Estonian song & dance festivals are happening this upcoming summer and Kersti and Merike will be attending! Koigu's history is deeply rooted in Estonian handicrafts & traditions. Our family originated from Estonia and continues to celebrate our culture. Estonian folk festivals are filled with colourful embroidered and woven traditional folk costumes and fresh flower crowns. This month’s Koigu Collector Colour is inspired by the FOLK FESTIVAL. We can’t wait to get even more inspired when we are there.
Rich, sunny colours in a muted variegated rainbow. Dyed on a fingering weight base of 100% merino yarn - KPPPM.
