Okay, so the Mid-October Surprise sale continues, at least through Friday — all yarns are $24.50 each, with just $1-per-skein for shipping. All available yarns are shown on the Blog Reader Specials page<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

But I was sitting here musing about some of the yarns and how they could be used together.\u00a0 What about a simple triangular shawl pattern, but using 2 different colorways, with 8- or 10-row bands of each color, BUT doing stockinette for one color, then reverse stockinette for the other color.\u00a0 It would result in a welted texture, rather than just a plain smooth stockinette all the way.\u00a0 You could do a 5-stitch garter stitch or seed stitch border along each side going across the top.<\/p>\n

This is just one way to use different coordinating or contrasting colors.<\/p>\n

So I pulled out some Twinsets that feel like they’d work together in such a scheme.\u00a0 First I got a picture of them all, and then made different pairings, shown down below.<\/p>\n

Your color sense and inspiration is probably different from mine.\u00a0 I realize the sun and shadows wreak havoc on trying to judge individual pictures, and I would be more than happy to photograph whatever combination you’d like to see together.\u00a0 Just email me<\/strong><\/a> and let me know which yarns you’d like.\u00a0 I can’t control the sun or shadows but I can at least photograph combinations all in one light at the same time. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
