Vincent van Gogh often carried out colour experiments with balls of wool for his paintings. Opal, on the other hand, was inspired by Van Gogh's paintings. This gorgeous collection, based on paintings such as Starry Night, Café Terrace at Night, Vase with Twelve Sunflowers and Bedroom in Arles, is the result. The colour palette of a particular painting is always incorporated in the 8 colours of the yarn collection.
