Julie Asselin - Julie Asselin Boucle

Boucle is a looped yarn that knits up into a soft textured fabric. Famous for its cozy, yet sophisticated  vibe, boucle was popularised by Coco Chanel back in the 1940s.

These gorgeous hand-dyed colours were created by Julie Assselin.

It is the perfect yarn for light and comfortable accessories and garments. We love the Chanel-esque Emily Jacket by Sari Nordlund for this yarn. We're also eyeing some great winter accessories such as the FREE Mouton Noir Hat by Espace Tricot, Hiver
  Hat by Clo Tricots (which is found in 52 Weeks of Chunky Knits), and Merle Loop Neckwarmer by Other Loops.
