Have you seen Teti Lutsak's iconic Nivalis patterns? They feature snowdrops--the first bulbs to bloom in spring.
This gorgeous design caught our eye and our imagination.
So we designed a dual-toned zip pouch imprinted with Teti's gorgeous snowdrop in its honor. And she designed an exclusive Nivalis Scarf pattern to go with it!
With the Nivalis Bundle, you can now get the Nivalis Zip Pouch, the Nivalis Scarf pattern, and 2 skeins of the fabulous Hinterland Yarn in contrasting colors to create a Nivalis Scarf of your own. Bundles go on sale September 28, 12pm EDT.
A portion of the proceeds from each bundle will benefit the Hospitallers Medical Battalion, who source and deliver medical supplies to civilian paramedics saving lives in Ukraine. (More on their incredible work below.)
What Makes This Bundle AMAZING

And did we mention that you can add a wrist strap to make it a wristlet?
Nivalis Scarf Pattern
The fabulous Nivalis Scarf is an exclusive pattern, designed just for this bundle! It features an inlay colorwork snowdrop pattern in dual tones.
Hinterland Range Yarn
The Hinterland Farm is an alpaca sanctuary who partners with local farms for other fibers. Though rustic, the yarn is incredibly soft and blooms beautifully once wet-blocked.
The beautiful Range Yarn colorways are created from blending 50% Rambouillet fiber with the natural tones of 50% alpaca fiber. You get 2 contrasting skeins to match your Nivalis Pouch in one of the following color pairs:
- Truffle & Maple

The Snowdrop: A Symbol of Perserverance
In Ukrainian culture, snowdrops (підсніжники) hold deep symbolic meaning as a sign of hope, renewal, and resilience.
These delicate flowers are among the first to bloom after the harsh winter, often pushing through the snow to signal the arrival of spring. Their appearance after the cold season represents new beginnings and the strength to overcome adversity, a theme that resonates deeply in Ukrainian folklore and traditions.
Snowdrops are often associated with purity and protection, and in some stories, they are seen as a symbol of the earth's awakening, reminding people that life endures even in the most challenging times.
For many Ukrainians, the snowdrop is more than just a flower; it is a metaphor for the nation’s enduring spirit. Through centuries of hardship and struggle, the Ukrainian people have drawn strength from their cultural symbols, with the snowdrop standing as a reminder that hope can blossom even in the darkest of moments.
Today, as Ukraine faces new challenges, the snowdrop continues to symbolize resilience, survival, and the courage to stand strong in the face of adversity. Its significance extends beyond the natural world, embodying the cultural and emotional spirit of a people united by hope and perseverance.
Nivalis + Medical Battalion
The Medical Battalion plays a crucial role in delivering urgent medical aid to civilian paramedics working on the frontlines in Ukraine. As the brutal attacks continue, more and more Ukrainian civilians and defenders are suffering from severe injuries that require immediate medical attention.
However, a significant lack of vehicles and medical supplies has left over 80 of the 300 Hospitallers’ paramedics unequipped to provide timely treatment and evacuations for the injured.
In response to this dire situation, the Medical Battalion has mobilized to raise vital funds and supplies, working closely with individuals and organizations who are willing to donate money, transport, and medical resources. Their mission is to ensure that essential medical equipment, humanitarian supplies, and emergency first aid reach those who need them most.
What sets Medical Battalion apart is their rapid, agile response, free of bureaucracy. They focus on delivering life-saving aid directly to the Hospitallers’ paramedics within 72 hours, even in high-risk areas like Bucha, where larger organizations feared to tread.
These paramedics, many of whom are volunteers from diverse backgrounds, undergo intensive training and work tirelessly to treat the injured, often risking their own lives in the process.
Every donation goes directly toward supplying vehicles and medical equipment, allowing these brave volunteers to continue their life-saving efforts on the frontlines.
That's why we're choosing to send 15% every Nivalis Bundle purchase to Medical Battalion. They embody of the spirit of the Nivalis--the snow drop--and are blooming in the face of adversity.
We hope that you enjoy this fabulous bundle and all it means to us!
Love,
