 * Also, I realized you have to add “../evolve/” to the beginning of the other “@
   import” paths; for example, “@import url( ‘../evolve/library/media/layouts/2col-
   r.css’ );”.
 * There are also some layout style commmands that should also be copied.

 * I know this was posted 5 months ago, but I was looking for information on how
   to create a child theme of EvoLve and found this post. I think I figured out 
   how to do it if this helps anybody.
 * You create a folder for your child theme and put in two files, one called “style.
   css” and one called “base.css.”
 * You create the style.css as usual regarding your child theme information at the
   top. But when you come to the point where you would type “@import url(‘../evolve/
   style.css’);” instead you copy all the “@import” information from the style.css
   in the original EvoLve theme. Then delete or comment out *the one that imports
   the “base.css” file and type “@import url(‘base.css’);” instead.
 * Then copy the “base.css” file from the original EvoLve theme, which is found 
   in “evolve/library/media/css/base.css,” and copy it into your child theme.
 * Then you can change the base.css theme however you want to change the look of
   the site.
 * I hope that is clear enough.
 * *it says “@import url( ‘library/media/css/base.css’ );”
