WIP Wednesday: Blue and Green Edition
I’m still trucking along on my Bevin re-knit. The back and front are done and sewn together:
Actually, the sleeves are done too since that picture was taken. Now it’s sewing up time (urgh), which means there’s a lot of this action happening:
Sigh. So anyway, I’m taking breaks between sewing up sessions to knit other things. I decided to re-knit the sample for my Europos Scarf as well, using the gorgeous Malabrigo Rios in Vaa I showed off in my last post. It’s coming along nicely!
Seeing a color theme yet? If you’ve been following this blog for a while, you might have noticed I gravitate toward blues and greens (preferably both at once!) above all other colors. I kept trying to make myself branch out, but the truth is that the colors are flattering on me, photograph beautifully, and are fun to knit. I think maybe I should just embrace it.
And just as I was thinking this, the yarn arrived for a secret design for a yarn company.
The pic is intentionally hard to make out (secret, remember?), but it’s dark shades of–you guessed it–green and blue.
I’m in love. :-)
Love love love the colors! Greens and blues are my faves. The sweater and the scarf both are lovely! Good idea–taking breaks from seaming to knit a little too.
I love your blues and greens. Stick with what you love. That’s my motto. :)
I do the same thing! One opening night at Stitches West, I told myself that I was not going to buy ANY MORE red yarn. When I got back to the room that night and looked at my haul, I’d bought ALL GREEN yarn instead. Like you said, I know what works for me. ;)
