Once Upon a Time✨
There’s something extra special about a story that lives on the most accurately through generations of the family in which it existed. It kind of makes it feel like we could live in a world full of fairy tales, because perhaps to us outsiders it is always just a “tale”.
Grande Dame invites the Brothers Grimm to her castle in efforts to inform them of how their story of the little cinder girl differed in real life. They exchange pleasantries and go back and forth a bit before their attention is caught by a painting of a young woman.
Wilhelm (one of the authors): “Forgive me, Your Majesty. Might I inquire about the painting? She’s really quite, uh, extraordinary.”
Grande Dame: “Her name was Danielle de Barbarac. And this...” (clinks shoes) “…was her glass slipper. Perhaps you will allow me to set the record straight.“
Wilhelm: “Then it’s true— the story.”
Grande Dame: “Yes. Quite. Now, then— What is that phrase you use? Oh, yes. Once upon a time, there lived a young girl... who loved her father very much.”
Once Upon a Time is a blend of ashy greiges (grey/beige), a pale peachy blush, aged mauves (by incorporating brown undertones), and topped off with speckles of brown, eggplant, and rusty orange gold.

*Due to the nature of hand dyed yarn, bleeding may occur on your first few washes. This is pretty standard of acid dyes, and is more intense with certain pigments.
Each skein may also vary slightly, so if you're working on a project using multiple skeins it is recommended to alternate rows using two skeins at a time. Also, please order skeins for a project in the same order to ensure sameness amongst skeins.
Colors and tone may vary by monitor. I work very hard to capture accurate color by using natural light, but there may still be differences on different screens.
