These art batts were inspired by a beautiful painting by Monet. The entire name of the painting is as follows: "Monet's Houses of Parliament, London, with the Sun Peaking through the Fog."
This was my favorite from a series of paintings he did there, and I used this painting as inspiration for my club colorways last spring.
These art batts contain merino soft merino wool, baby alpaca, bamboo, and baby camel down.
I use a special technique to keep the colors bright but also well blended.
The last photos show some yarn I spun from these art batts to give you an idea of how they can spin up.
