Color is a funny thing

I wanted to knit a second Floral Rhapsody (coming soon), so I cast on with several different color combinations from my stash.

This one is just too exciting for me.

Better? But still pretty bold for me.

Winner winner chicken dinner! Not super contrasty, but I like it.

The original is still my favorite!

Coming soon: Floral Rhapsody

Hot off my needles, it’s Floral Rhapsody! (Name may change, we’ll see. Give me your suggestions!)

This half-pi shawl features easy shaping, easy stitches, and assigned pooling. It’s knit with two skeins of fingering weight yarn, one of which is dyed for assigned pooling. I used A Chick that Knitz Singles Fingering in Vintage Rose (pooling) and Respect.

I’m looking for a few test knitters; let me know if you’re interested!

It took me six cast ons, but I finally heard what the yarn was trying to tell me. I love it!
