Hakuna Matata - A Lion's Tale

 


Our second colorway comes from the dye pots of Dizzy Blonde Studios in Port St. Lucie, FL., and not one to be missed!  


"In keeping with the 'Lion Character' theme, we chose to tell the story of Simba's journey from outcast to king, and my favorite part of the movie.   Hakuna Matata means 'there are no worries' in Swahili, and this colorway effortlessly captures the environment where Simba lived his carefree days growing up under the watchful eyes of his surrogate father-pals, Timon & Pumbaa.  Lush forest and deep olive of the jungle are the main colors with a pop of grasshopper for those 'slimy yet satisfying' moments.  Nothing speaks volumes of Simba's transformation than when he chases Rafiki out of the jungle only to be confronted by his own reflection; where he faces his past, his regret, fear and guilt, and then suddenly, like so many leaves in the wind, get swept away and a new king emerges."

The base is the same as Beach Bunny Yarns': 80% SW Merino/20% Silk, 4oz/115gm - 434yd/397m.  We purposely dyed our colorways on the same base, and coordinated them so that you can put them together in a 2-color project. In a later post we will be publishing pattern recommendations, so if you haven't done so yet, hit that "subscribe" button so you don't miss out on any of the Magic!

Pre-sales will open once the entire collection has been revealed, and there will be a bonus item for those who order the entire collection, but we'll cover that in another post.

Registration is now open at the Beach Bunny Yarns websiteSpace is limited, however, so make sure you register early, and save the date.
