Citron, a lemony dyelot for long warm days ahead.
I will be honest, y'all get weird when we launch yellows. The least purchased dyelots are always our yellows. This green/yellow has been a favorite since we launched it a year ago, and relaunched during our bi-annual full color relaunch.

Yes, we dye cashmere! We always dye cashmere and wool garments by hand, rather than in our dye machines. This reduces the agitation that garments experience dur

April FAQ // Can I send you something that is cotton poplin, hand dry only?
Yes! Note that cotton that has been washed may shrink slightly when dyed. That said, we are happy to hang dry delicate garments. When you check out, be sure to note in the ‘garment description’ pop-up window.

This is your Monday reminder that the way to extend the life of your garments is to take good care of them. Don't worry - it's not that hard! Simply use gentle detergents (dish soap works great 😉 ), avoid acids (wash out with cold water - not hot! if there's a spill 🫗 ), and store out of direct sun.

Buckle up because we're getting in the time machine, kids. Two years ago Winona & Bixa took a trip out West to run a pop-up event at a concert in Salt Lake City. We couldn’t help but extend the trip a few days to spend some time in the Wild West, driving through Idaho on our way to the Grand Tetons.
