Yarn Bases

Charles Dickens February (1812 – 9 June 1870) was an English novelist and social critic. In his lifetime he campaigned vigorously for children’s rights, education and other social reforms. He created some of literature’s best-known fictional characters.

Each LilyRose Dyeworks base is named for a beloved character from some of his best known works — figures of strength, softness, resilience, and quiet transformation.
