The Kypria was a third Homeric work, a sort of prequel to the Iliad, which told the story of events leading up to the Trojan War. It was lost around the 3rd century CE, and I have been working on a reconstruction, based on a surviving summary and fragments.

Each colourway of this yarn includes a piece of this reconstruction on the tag, and all are numbered in the order in which they go. Collect the tags and compare with others to read the whole story. How many will there be all together? Who knows, maybe a hundred!
