Mon Ami

"My name is Hercule Poirot, and I am probably the greatest detective in the world."


My dad absolutely loved Agatha Christie. He read all of her books, and he especially loved the BBC Poirot show with David Suchet. Poirot is a Belgian detective who is very particular and gets very mad if you call him French. He solves many crimes while his sidekick, Hastings, bumbles around doing not much at all.

Mon Ami is a variegated colorway of a pale lavender and leaf green, with a dash of silver speckles thrown in. I associate Poirot with a lot of gardens, and I like his lapel vase that he puts fresh flowers into, so I wanted to convey the feeling of an English garden with Mon Ami.

Available in all of our bases! The sock sets will come with a mini fo Little Grey Cells.

Our stitch marker from @twinesandlines is an image of Poirot's hat and mustache! I freaking love it and I hope you do too! Stitch markers will be included with sock sets while supplies last.
