I made EXTRA KITS!!!!
This kit is from the year-long series Fibre Reflections; Celebrating Canadian Women in Art.
I love it so much that I decided to make a few extra kits for those who were not able to join the year long series. It is inspired by Emily Carr's Western Forest painting (1931)

Kit includes:
9 shades of Violet Jane Fine yarn and 3 colours of Briggs and Little Heritage (all 100% wool) — everything you need to punch the design (pattern on Monks cloth)
110 CAD +shipping from Ottawa (or free local delivery)
