JUNE 2025 // CRYSTAL SHARD
Originally, we were planning to dye a deep, super saturated blue colour inspired by “cosmic cobalt”, a colour that was selected as a colour of the year for 2025. The cobalt blue was meant to be deep and dark, celestial, and reminiscent of a starry night sky.
For the original deep dark blue yarn club colourway, we called it Lapis Lazuli and I related it back to my kids learning about about lapis lazuli through playing their favourite video game, Minecraft. I love that Minecraft introduced my kids to the idea of extracting colour from minerals and rocks and then being able to dye fabric (including bed linens and rugs) into vibrant colours. Minecraft also gives players the option to shear a sheep for wool and dye that wool with dyes that were extracted from rocks and plants. Then when my kids see what we do at the SweetGeorgia dye studio, I think it makes what we do more relevant in their eyes!
