Knitters of Mastodon I need your help in deciding what to do with all my nice single soft variegated fingering weight yarn in mostly greens and blues. There are 15 skeins of nice yarns. I don't need one project for all of them together but I also don't need 15 one-skein shawlettes. Do you have good ideas for projects that use at least 2 colours, but with mostly coordinating colours? @knitting#knitting#fiberarts#stricken
@knitting thanks for all the ideas. there where quite a few ideas for shawls with low contrast. I will probably also knit some mitts and gloves as I lost one of each of my pairs this winter. This still means I have to decide which patterns and what to knit first, but I have ideas.
@bubblewrap@knitting You could join in on the upcoming #PsychedelicaKAL shawl in July! Highly customizable, says designer and KAL leader @LaVisch. Could easily a) pair for heavier gauge or b) use fingering weight, execute in 3-4 colors. This pattern is perfect for that!
@bubblewrap@knitting my wife says you should use the blue & yellow on the left to make a shawl with a honeycomb pattern. 3/4 of it blue, bottom 1/4 yellow. She says she will send me a Ravelry pattern to share with you.
@knitting just to make it clear my problem is that these are all in itself mostly very variegated yarns and also the colours have mostly very little contrast to each other
