Charybdis - October's Mythic Beast

Charybdis is a Legendary monster that lives on one side of a narrow channel of water opposite the man-eating Scylla. Sailors trying to pass through the channel would be faced with the decision of sailing to close to Charybdis, and their ship being swallowed into the sea, or closer to the mountain side where Scylla would attack the ship and eat the sailors. 

Charybdis is the daughter of Poseidon and Gaea. She was aiding her father by engulfing islands and adding them into her father's domain. Zeus, angered over the stolen land, struck Charybdis with his lightning bolt, embedding her deep in the seabed. From there, she inhales the surrounding seawater creating massive whirlpools that destroy anything that gets too close.

Wet block when finished working. Some color bleeding may happen on first wash. 

The yarn is dyed in the same pot, but that by no means promises they will each take the dye the same. If you are making a large project, please feel free to reach out and I can work with you to ensure the yarn you get is from the same dyelot, or dye them special for you. I want to ensure your product turns out as beautifully as you imagine it!

Studio is not pet-free, cats and dogs are present. I try my best to avoid their contact with product, but alas. They are powerful beings.

Handwash with wash of your choice, lay flat to dry.
