Colour, continued

....where was I? Oh, yes. Colour.

I have a new colourway, which I originally put together for my fibre swap partner, I still haven't decided what to call it, but it's fun and bright and I'm tempted to keep it for myself. Hehe. I know, I always say that. It's a brighter more intense combination of the same colours that Margie's just made her most recent beret from. Yum.

I was mucking about with some new colours and threw together some black, purple and green, and this is what I got. It looked revolting in the skein, so I thought I'd ball it up and perhaps even overdye it. I wound it, and it started looking nice, so I started knitting and... voila! just like magic, gorgeous colour emerged. It seems it's pretty difficult to make a true mistake with colour experimentation, just... a violation of expectations, I suppose. I like it. (my inner philosopher is grinning with glee right about now)

And finally, just cos it was such a cute photo, and because it's so fantastic how well my birdy and my boy get along... actually, these days I think she likes him better than me. Tart.
