Leona
A luxurious blend hand dyed by Amélie in Canada. Leona is Amélie's mother's mother. Emilia's daughter. Her grandmother. Amélie tells she made the best sugar pie and had the sweetest arms in the world. At three o'clock, the whole quintuplex was forbidden to make noise; she was taking a nap.

She has been immersed in the world of fibre since 2012 and founded Émilia & Philomene in 2017. Her desire for everything that is done slowly, but that is part of time, is now part of her practice as a dyer and knitter.
We recommend always washing your knits by hand in cool water with a high quality wool wash. Dry flat.
