I was very excited to be asked to be involved with and design for the Mirasol Project.

Throughout this project the ancient Andean culture has been an amazing source of inspiration for me.

For the photo shoot we travelled to the remote area that inspired the Mirasol Project. This journey made me really appreciate how much we take for granted and also allowed me to experience the stunning scenery and ever changing climate of the region first hand.

The light changed constantly from early morning sunrises to brilliant sunshine often mixed with rain or even hail. The distinct nature of the light throughout the day and the changing weather that combine to create this climate are mirrored in the Mirasol yarns as each one produces a completely different look and feel, and yet all work well as a collection together.

I hope you enjoy knitting the designs, perhaps adding your own personal touch, while knowing that by purchasing the Mirasol yarn you are making a difference.
