While updating the shop today, I was struck by how well the colorways I dyed over the last week were playing with each others - this is partly due to them being overflows of preorders that my wonderful customers requested. So I shot a few pictures of different colour associations, to share my inspirations with you!
I know now that I’m always attracted to the same association of colours: that’s litteraly any shade of green paired with any shade of pink or purple. Like Hallow and Sous-Bois here, or some mint Green + raspberry for instance. Ivy Confetti (blue green) and Gloria (deep magenta) is another huge favorite. I’m trying hard to broaden my colour association game but that specific pairing keeps jumping at me again and again, catching me by surprise until I realize “Hmmm that’s actually some kind of green and some kind of pink or purple. Again. Darn!”
Neutral pairings are also a (lesser) favorite, that I will often choose for larger garments such as sweaters or cardigans. I like my shawls bright and colorful but for actual clothes, I’m very neutral.
Do you have a colour association that you keep coming back to?
If something strikes your fancy, all the above has been listed in the shop here. If a colourway appears sold out or if you just can’t find it, know that I will happily dye it for you! Just drop me an email in the shop. Last, if you wish to see those yarny babies as close to real life as it gets, check out season 2 episode 7 of my Inspirations podcast over on Youtube!
Have a lovely week friend!
