colour lovers - 3KCBWDAY1
Remember that knit and crochet blog week over at Eskimimi Makes? It started today and I'm trying it out!
Day 1 is all about colour. When I first started to crochet, I didn't have a lot of yarn choices. One of my first big projects was a huge hotch potch of colours because I had all the oddments of yarn that Hubby had picked up at a boot sale.
But as I look through my yarn stash now, I get a better idea of my colour choices.
I go for neutrals, especially if I'm going to wear it.
Or if someone else is going to wear it.
Unless they want a bit of colour.
Or I need to work with colour!
What I know for sure is that I don't limit myself to certain colours. I feel it's more about the colour combinations for me ... and a lot of the time, how I'm feeling. Neutrals? Loud colours?
Sometimes I like to mix the muted tones with pops of colour.
And other times I pick colour combinations subconsciously. Really!
I did it here
where I was inspired by trips to Algiers.
And here
where I was inspired by this!
How about you? How do you choose your colours?
