Empousa are shapeshifting minions of Hecate alleged to have one of their legs made of copper, and the other of a donkey. From the waist up, they were beautiful women. They were sent out by their mistress Hecate to lure lost travelers to their lair where they would feast upon the flesh and blood of their victim. Allegedly they were vain creatures, and if their victims insulted their visage, the Empousa would release a bloodcurdling screech and flee.
This is a preorder yarn and will be shipped out in February.

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.
Care Instructions
Care Instructions
As this is a wool product it is fairly naturally self-cleansing. Socks should be handwashed after approximately 3 wears. Sweaters are good for up to 10 wears. And Shawls/Scarfs/Wraps are good for months.
Or you can use your own judgement and wash them when they start to smell. Do your thing, boo.
Handwash with your favorite soap, and lay flat to dry.
