I guess starting out with paints, before discovering yarn, I have never shied away from using colour.......colour talks to me.......
When I see a dramatic sunset.........
.......a still sea........
........a field full of oil seed rape flowers....
So when I crochet and knit....am I any different? Are my yarn shelves weighed down with varying shades on the same theme?
Which colour floats my boat? None of them really........on their own.....but throw a load together and now you've found my love.
I'm not sure I could pick a favourite....but I can tell you this, as I'm running along the home straight at the end of one project, the next one is in my mind.....not that I'm fed up with what I'm working on....but I just can't wait to see what the next project will look like.
When it comes to colour..... I like natural, bright, gaudy, toning, pastel, clashy, pale, sparkly (I do love sparkly!).....and most of all....I like them all together..........call me frivolous or flighty....but then that's my true colours.
One thing, you may see again and again, is a love for stripes, straight or wiggly, they draw me in! As part of this Knitting and Crochet Blog Week, I am going to learn a new skill.
To go with my love of stripes, I've picked up a library book about Brioche Knitting....follow my progress over this next week to see where it takes me.......
