Inspired by the ancient Greek god of the north Wind, Boreas is the bringer of cold winter air. These are the five mini skeins ONLY and you will need 2 x 100g skeins of yarn to complete the 4 Winds Scarf.
The Boreas mini skeins ONLY Yarn Kit consists of five 20g mini-skeins, one each of (dark-light): Purple Sea Urchin, Pinkapalooza, Vintage Rose, Steel Magnolia and Newsprint.
Please note: the mini skeins in this kit are used as both C1 and C2 in a gradient effect. See here for more details.
This yarn kit was curated for the 4 Winds Scarf (pattern available on Ravelry or Payhip) by Susanna Kaartinen of Sanna and Co (part of The Bendigo Project 2025) but can be used for anything your heart desires. Perfect for colourwork details.

Tough Stocking is our most popular yarn base. It is the perfect yarn for any project from socks, mittens, hats and gloves to shawls, garments and baby clothes. Merino for warmth and elasticity, nylon for strength. Moderate twist means good stitch definition.
Hand dyed yarn is a work of art - no two skeins are the same. We recommend that you order enough yarn to complete your project, and that you alternate skeins every couple of rows to avoid obvious colour differences.
